I am reading The Heartfulness Way by Kamlesh Patel and he talks of mediation is when we go inward to connect with God/Source. Our souls are longing for that connection. Home with God is within. As we practice meditation as a beginner, it is not always the same. Sometimes, we get so connected to God and long for that experience each time but in longing for something we are cutting ourselves off of learning something new because we are expecting the same results. Being open to each and every experience even when mediating, I feel is essential. Hope that makes sense.
