About This Quote
When a person meditates on his or her own inner body, he or she is practicing spirituality. When a person meditates on an ex-master’s body, however, he or she is merely focusing on the outside of a spiritual person. It’s as if you’re trying to become a Buddhist by hanging out with Buddhists. You may learn some Buddhist teachings from time to time, but that does not make you a Buddhist.
Similar concepts apply to meditation and spirituality. In short, inner meditation is the only way to achieve true spirituality.
