"Think only about
what is holy. Empty your mind."

There
is a direct linkage among self-examination, meditation, and prayer. Taken
separately, these practices can bring much relief and benefit. But when they
are logically related and interwoven, the result is an unshakable foundation
for life. Now and then we may be granted a glimpse of that ultimate reality
which is God's kingdom. And we will be comforted and assured that our own
destiny in that realm will be secure for so long as we try, however
falteringly, to find and do the will of our own creator...
The
actual experience of meditation and prayer across the centuries is, of course,
immense. The world's libraries and places of worship are a treasure trove for
all seekers. It is hoped that every A.A. who has a religious connection which
emphasizes meditation will return to the practice of that devotion as never
before.
