Are we considering meditation in terms of form or formlessness?
On the levels of form (ie mentally, emotionally, physically), meditation is an experience, with a beginning and an end.
On the levels of formlessness, Being simply is. There is no beginning or end.
Consciousness is the key. Does consciousness go out into form and identify with movement? Or does consciousness go inwards to formlessness and rest in the stillness of Being?
So meditation is both an experience and not an experience. It depends where we are coming from.
Peace.
