"Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life--perhaps the greatest,
and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody.
That is the beauty of it. It has no technique and therefore no authority.
When you learn about yourself, watch yourself, watch the way you walk,
how you eat, what you say, the gossip, the hate, the jealousy--if you are aware of all that
in yourself, without any choice, that is part of meditation."

"So meditation can take place even when you are sitting in a bus
or walking in the woods full of light and shadows, or listening
to the singing of the birds or looking at the face of your wife or child."

"The supreme self is devoid of abnormalities,
is the cause of consciousness
with the conjunction of mind, properties of bhutas and sense organs,
is eternal and [the] seer who sees all the actions."
From Charaka Samhita, Volume 1
Sutrasthana, Chapter 1, Verse 56
