Have you meditated today?

Such question might as simple as have you prayed today?

Perhaps, but may be the first question is rarely been heard of since we haven’t got accustomed to meditation. Yes, but one thing for sure, meditation as a Wise Man says that it is not a silent sitting for several hours or more.

Meditation should be a way of life. Means that we can meditate while walking, eating, even when we are working. Great idea, don’t you think so?
