Discovery

Seize the mountain spirits,

Make them divulge their secrets.

Only with strength is there discovery.

The scriptures say that the mountains contain the answers. Generations of seekers  have gone into the wilderness and have encountered spirits both benevolent and  terrible.

Though the possibility of great discovery is mixed with the threat of misadventure, we must all go into the mountains to seek these answers.

We should understand that these mountains represent the unknown aspects of  our own minds. Meditation is a process of discovery, of slowly exploring how you  function as a human being.

Through walking in the vastness of this land, you can  resolve the problems of your psyche and seek the treasures buried in your soul.  Like actual mountain exploration, this process is not without danger.

Failure means  falling into insanity and obsession. Success is to find treasures without comparison anywhere in the world.

People ask, “Is meditation necessary?” If you want to explore the innermost  parts of your mind and ascertain who you really are, there is no more ideal method.

Mere introspection is not deep enough, and psychological counseling will not  necessarily bring you face to face with all parts of yourself. Only the depth and solitude of meditation can help you learn everything.

Discoveries are there. We need  only enter the mind to find them.
