SOURCE

The idea here is to meditate on (contemplate) each verse of the chapters in isolation. It's best to spend a while on each, really allowing the message(s) to sink in.

Over time, without forcing anything, the words will begin to touch something deep within. We begin to resonate with that which all the verses point towards -- the real Truth.
