Morten Tolboll believes that meditation isn't some kind of mental visualizing technique, but something philosophical, an art of life, which involves the entire cognitional, existential and ethical reality of Man. Moreover that this concept of meditation is the central core in all wisdomtraditions. The unusual thing about the book is that it claims that all the great masters within the wisdomtraditions actually used philosophical questions as their central meditation technique, and that all other spiritual exercises only were used to support this. In this way philosophical questions were a type of universal coans, which worked with the purpose to open the consciousness in towards the Source: the Good, the True and the Beautiful. In the book Morten Tolboll seeks to make this clear by constructing it as a guidance in how this quite concrete can be put into practice.
