There comes a time in every person’s life when questions become unbearable. Frustration, depression, sadness, and meaninglessness gnaw at the soul like an unanswered riddle. We search for solutions in books, relationships, careers, and fleeting pleasures, but the deeper we go, the more we realize: the problems may be many, but the answer is only one.

Meditation.

Not meditation as an activity, a ritual confined to the morning or evening, but meditation as a way of being—one that stretches across every moment of existence. And the simplest, most profound method? Witnessing.

The Secret Layer Beyond Subject and Object

Right now, you see these words on your screen. You—the subject—are reading. The words—the object—are being read. But what if you look deeper? What if you notice not just the act of reading, but the silent witness inside you, observing it all?

This is the hidden dimension of existence—the space beyond the doer and the doing.

Look at a tree. You are here, the tree is there. But can you find the witness who is watching you seeing the tree? Listen to a bird’s song. There is the bird, there is you listening—but who is witnessing both?

This witness is your essence. This is where meditation begins.

Living Meditation: A 24-Hour Revolution

Most people think of meditation as something to be done for 20 minutes a day, eyes closed, in a quiet corner. But what about the remaining 23 hours and 40 minutes? If meditation is left behind after a session, its magic evaporates. True meditation is victorious only when it spreads across all 24 hours of the day.

And this is where witnessing changes everything.

• Eating? Don’t just eat. Notice the act of eating, the one who eats, and the silent witness watching both.
• Walking? Let the body move, but let your awareness remain apart, observing the walking happen.
• Listening? A bird caws, a car honks, the wind rustles—but can you feel the presence that listens to the listening?

Slowly, this knack of witnessing becomes second nature. The mundane becomes mystical. The routine transforms into revelation.

The Mirror Within: Seeing Without Judgment

What happens when this witnessing turns inward?

You feel anger. Instead of saying, “I am angry,” try seeing the truth: “Anger is arising within me, and I am witnessing it.” The moment you observe without identification, anger loses its grip. It is merely a passing cloud in the sky of your awareness.

The same happens with sadness. With fear. With happiness. They come and go, but you remain untouched, just as the sky is never stained by the storms that pass through it.

Witnessing is like discovering a mirror inside yourself—a mirror that reflects everything but remains untarnished.

And then something miraculous happens.

The Vanishing of the Mind & the Arrival of Silence

Thoughts cannot exist without identification. The moment you watch them, they disappear like shadows in the sunlight. Moods dissolve. Emotions fade. And in their place, something vast, silent, and luminous emerges—a peace so deep, it defies words.

And when there is nothing left to watch?

The greatest transformation begins.

Your witnessing energy, which was once occupied with objects—thoughts, emotions, sensations—suddenly has nowhere to go. So, it turns inward, back to its source. It collapses into itself.

And in that moment, you awaken.

The Ultimate Homecoming

Meditation is not an escape; it is a homecoming. A return to the place where existence itself needs you—not as a fleeting individual, but as an essential part of the cosmic whole.

A single blade of grass is as necessary as the greatest star. You, exactly as you are, are irreplaceable.

When you realize this—not intellectually, but as a living experience—all suffering disappears. Life is no longer an accident, a burden, or a struggle. It is a celebration.

A dance of consciousness.

A divine play where you are both the witness and the wonder.

And in that knowing, you are home.
