The Joy of Meditation

Have you experienced the joy of meditation? I plan to spend more time on meditation and hopefully to one day to experience deep meditation stage. Just reading Buddha's teaching is not enough, else that is mere philosophy and not helpful. One has to investigate and experience to really understand. Just like someone can describe the taste of orange well, but if you never taste the orange, you will never know and understand the taste of orange. 

Happiness is not pursue of endless material thing. Once you have achieved the goal of buying branded car, you have another desire for another status thing like private property. Those endless craving will never bring you contentment. Now I understand why my former boss said he prefer to meditate and not travel.
