As the self is filled by the Self, 
so is all filled continuously by you. 
There is no meditator or meditation. 
Why does your mind meditate shamelessly?

~ Avadhuta Gita (1.26) [*]
 
Comment by Swami Ashokananda: "Shamelessly" - One should be ashamed to meditate, because meditation pre-supposes a shameful forgetfulness of one's true nature. If one does not know The Self meditation is the way to realization. After realization one will cease to meditate.
