MEDitation

I believe meditation is good for the soul.......maybe I'm  wrong. Who knows? Just taking a moment, a nice quiet moment to sit back and completely clear your mind. Let the stress go. Let the worries go. Let all the connections to all other human beings completely go. Like a metaphysical escape of the body. Let your mind completely escape. Almost like a reset button on your stress levels. They practice yoga and meditation in a main prison in India. During class many people felt that could not trandcend successfully to American prisons. That American prisoners were to small minded and would not be willing to accept these Eastern traditions. I argue that it has never been tried. Perhaps it has. Perhaps it has already failed here in the U.S. but I'll look more into that later. Being secluded for most of the day, hell being secluded for most of your life; meditation could provide you a little escape from the despair that surrounds you. MEDitation, medicine for the mind.
