Who in sunlight dance among the birds and the children at their play,
Who at midnight dance among corpses in the burning grounds,

Meditation is simply awareness without any effort, an effortless alertness; it does not need any technique. But your mind is so full of thoughts, so full of dreams, so much of the past, so much of the future - it is not here and now, and awareness has to be here and now.
