Meditate

The student who has studied all year is able to apply what he has learnt at examination time, whereas the student who hasn't studied cannot answer the questions. Nowadays students are allowed to take their books into the examination room, but that doesn't help the one who hasn't studied but hopes to scrape through by copying. The questions are framed in such a way that he won't know which part of the book to copy from. In other words, only students who have studied will pass. In the same way, the devotee who meditates all his life will be able to meditate when he dies, because meditation and devotion will have become his very nature. Remembering the Holy Name will have become second nature to him. That is why Kabir was able to say, "God remembers me while I relax."
