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[The true gentleman is subtly poised between an inner tact and an outer defense. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17363]]></link><description><![CDATA[The true gentleman is subtly poised between an inner tact and an outer defense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Canst thou bind, the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57814]]></link><description><![CDATA[Canst thou bind, the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62585]]></link><description><![CDATA[Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music arose with its voluptuous swell, Soft eyes look'd love to eyes which spake again,  And all went merry ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43443]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music arose with its voluptuous swell, Soft eyes look'd love to eyes which spake again,  And all went merry as a marriage bell.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We played a pretty clean game against a veteran, skilled team that's been at this a lot longer than we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40094]]></link><description><![CDATA[We played a pretty clean game against a veteran, skilled team that's been at this a lot longer than we have.
