In the West, we have been withdrawing from our tradition-, religion-, and even nation-centred cultures.

Freedom is the possibility of development, of enhancement of one's life - or the possibility of withdrawing, shutting oneself up, denying and stultifying one's growth.

I've concluded that one of the significant reasons that meditation works is that it consists of withdrawing our attention, and thus our human energy from a concern, allowing Spiritual energy, which is always there (Omnipresence) to flow in and animate the moment.

You cannot stay invested in someone or something for lifetime, eventually, inch by inch, day by day you start withdrawing.

The Christian must trust in a withdrawing God.
