Meditation helps us discover our natural freedom by exposing us to the lucidity of simple awareness. When this happens our meditation practice dissolves into a practice of no practice (which is not the same thing as abandoning practice) where no one is doing or not doing anything, and natural freedom is no longer yearned for, but effortlessly arises within oneself.
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 .
