The terms meditation and contemplation highlight distinct yet interconnected cognitive activities, both of which are beautifully stimulated by Peter Waldor's compilation of 14 poetically embodied Meditation Prompts. These poems are intriguing, challenging, and perhaps even disorienting: Is this poem a shared mind wandering, a guided journey into impermanence, a potential transcendence of self, or an Asubha or Chöd practice? I invite the reader to contemplate his seemingly random turns, as they are not random, but like symbols in a dream, can be unpacked to bring about a new perspective or sudden insight on an old problem (one you may not even know you had). Read each poem for the simple joy of its journey and also allow it to serve as a refreshing counterpoint to the well-trodden practices available in most meditation texts.
