[shadow=white,left,1300]We learn the value of meditationin The Program. As the beginning of the Eleventh Step suggests, we seek through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with god as we understand Him. One of the great values of meditation is that it clears the mind. And as the mind becomes clearer, it becomes more capable and willing to acknowledge the truth. Less pain is required to force honest recognition of defects and their results. The real needs of the whole person are revealed. Are prayer and meditation a regular part of my daily living?[/shadow]
