To be alive is to be present here and now with what is. Meditation helps us in staying grounded in the present moment. With time and practice, meditation will open a path towards what is to be alive - to be present and full aware in play with mystery and beauty and love of life. With time it might make you realise that we live on a very strange little speck of rock in a very remote corner of the universe and it is this rock that allows us to be alive. Cherish it.
Only by turning on the light, you can instantly destroy the darkness. Meditation can be the light shining awareness onto our attachments and afflictive emotions. As turning on the lights in a darkroom instantly removes the darkness. Likewise, through meditation or even, a rather simple analysis of our patterns of ego-clinging and afflictive emotions can make them collapse. Such collapse sees through our attachments and how these can be the cause of our suffering. Such can lead to liberation from the cycle of Samsara and the transcending of suffering .
