what to meditate.....

Once a zen disciple approached his master and sought a clarification on meditation techniques. The master patiently listened to his disciple . At the end, "During meditation you just visualize your face before you were born" he said.

Once we've understood the intrinsic message delivered by the zen master then meditating will not be a problem .......
