And having earnest goals like this leads naturally to wondering, \u201cWhen will I achieve enlightenment?&#8221; Or, \u201cAt what point will I finally arrive at a peaceful state?

In meditation, the point is not to look toward an imagined future; it is to be right here, right now, with a mind that\u2019s in the present moment. So, while there\u2019s no reason to judge yourself for having goals, let them go. Don\u2019t try to achieve a special state of mind like joy, clarity, or peace. Mental situations like those are referred to as meditation experiences \u2014 and like all experiences, they come and go, arising and dissolving, no more substantial than clouds in the sky. What <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">doesn\u2019t<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> go away is realization, which is a learning process.

Giving up is saying, \u201cNope, I can\u2019t do it. There\u2019s no hope for me. This is the end. Over and out.\u201d In meditation, you don\u2019t give up, you let go. Letting go means just being yourself, following the natural flow: whatever arises in your mind, you\u2019re just being with it. Your awareness is like a house, and all the meditation experiences are like guests. Whether gracious and pleasant, or ill-tempered and obnoxious, whether ugly or beautiful, short or tall\u00a0 \u2014 you maintain an open-door policy, letting all the guests come in, and letting them all leave again.
