No tangible way out of reality. Wow! Yes, that's a very profound concept. I've had times in my life where I wished my entire being, including my soul if it exists, could just end. Sometimes I find reality very hard to bear. Meditation is the opposite of escape, I think. It's a relief to be able to just sit with myself with no agenda, no distracting activities, nothing to do and nowhere to go. It was difficult at first, now I look forward to it. I can't escape from myself, unfortuantely! Wherever I go, there I am!
