Time to Meditate

All of us are now spending more time in our apartment or home than we have ever done in the past and much of that time is spent being alone.  We are told to have limited physical interaction with others; we are told to keep our distance. As a result, we now have much idle time on our hands. There is a saying that idle hands are the devil’s workshop. What about an idle mind? I would venture to say an idle mind is even more dangerous. Eastern religions incorporate an aspect of meditation, which is emptying your mind of all thoughts. What a dangerous thing to do. With an empty or idle mind, you are susceptible to all kinds of wicked, evil and especially fearful thoughts.
