Cold first winter rain . . .
poor monkey,
you too could use
A little woven cape

Mind is like a monkey. As after the first rain of winter water freezes, in the deep meditation mind freezes.

WHAT IS MEDITATION?
Meditation is a technique for personal growth that has been practiced for thousands of years around the world with repeatable results.
There is no aspect of your life that cannot be improved by meditation, whether it be in business, relationships, health, or developing any personal quality, such as willpower.

The highest purpose of meditation, however, is to discover YourSelf.
Meditation is the highest form of activity a person can perform. It is one of the most natural and rewarding of all human activities. It gives direct, intuitive experience of higher consciousness, and is the cornerstone of deep spirituality. It also brings balance, rest and a growing inner peace. While its highest purpose is to help us awaken our inner, spiritual nature, the benefits to body and mind are well established by medical research.
