Three things are necessary in order to meditate properly. These are the 3 S's of meditation :
Stillness
Silence
Solitude.
"When you become quiet, it just dawns on you." -Thomas Eddison.
Noise kills genius.
Stillness is strength.
Genius never hurries.
"If you have a conented mind, you have enough to enjoy life." -Plautus.

514. Eliminate. Less is More
"The height of Civilisation always runs to simplicity." - Bruce Lee.
Every day decrease the amount of rubbish around you. Do not add to it. Eliminate noise, ornamentation, excess paper, fat etc from your self and your enviornment. Learn to listen. Learn to meditate - reduce the clutter of sounds and ideas rushing around in your mind. Cultivate an appreciation of the simple line drawing of Japanese Art that brings the mind to rest when you simply let your gaze fall gently on it.
