Too many people struggle with #meditation because they imagine it to be a thing one has to do.

When in fact it is #nondoing. It is not even a struggle against the mind. It is not a struggle against the environment. Where there is struggle there is no meditation. It is allowing.

As is, we are.

As #Dogen says, meditation is the universe breathing through you.
