Three yogis decided to go to the Himalayas to meditate. They found their way to the snowclad upper regions, sat on a flat stone and closed their eyes.

It was freezing cold. So they looked around, discovered an abandoned cave with wooden planks on the floor and sat down again.

Three days passed and one of them opened his eyes and said, “It’s damn cold here, isn't it?”

No one said anything. He went back into meditation. Three more days passed and the second yogi opened his eyes and said, “Yes you are right. It is indeed damn cold here.” No comments from anyone.

He went back into meditation.

Three more days passed and the third yogi opened his eyes and said, “Will the two of you shut up please?” and went back into meditation.

4/7
So for nine days the thought that passed through their minds was 'it's so damn cold’.

Is this meditation?

I would say, this is stupidation if there is such a word.

Someone went for a walk in the woods. She sat on a rock beside the little gurgling creek. The birds twittered, the bumblebee buzzed, the setting sun painted the sky orange. A strange silence filled the air.

6/7
She wasn't trying to meditate. Meditation came uninvited, effortless, softly stepping into her heart. She forgot herself.

There was only meditation.

Pure, simple, delightful.
