In this respect it's unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men heap together the mistakes of their lives, and create a monster they call Destiny. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men heap together the mistakes of their lives, and create a monster they call Destiny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We didn't know there was anything being built until today. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39308]]></link><description><![CDATA[We didn't know there was anything being built until today.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She blushed and smiled nonstop for 20 minutes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34389]]></link><description><![CDATA[She blushed and smiled nonstop for 20 minutes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Amy Carmichael, Founder of the Dohnavur Fellowship, 1951   Joy is not gush: joy is not jolliness. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8343]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Amy Carmichael, Founder of the Dohnavur Fellowship, 1951   Joy is not gush: joy is not jolliness.
