"Why do so many Christians oppose meditation?" I asked. "Because they are taught to oppose it," Mark answered. "Think about it. If a cult church leading people outside themselves in order to control their perceptions were to allow their congregation to go within themselves for answers, they would lose control and money!" "Meditation is only heightened prayer," I began. "Through meditation, people would realize that, like peace, freedom and unconditional love, healing is already within. Church teaches that God knows no time, so it seems logical that everyone would embrace that timeless space through meditation and accept the healing that already exists there."
