==Background==
For nearly four decades, Easwaran taught a method of meditation, known as passage meditation, which involves focusing the mind on inspiring sacred texts, such as the ''23rd Psalm'' or the Buddha's ''Discourse on Good Will''. Throughout this time, he received inquiries about whether various texts were suitable passages for meditation. He taught that passages should meet the criteria he had learned to trust in his own practice: a passage should be "positive, practical, universal, and inspiring".〔''God Makes the Rivers to Flow'', 2009 edition, ISBN 978-1-58638-038-0〕 and drawn from a scripture or a person whose words and life attest to spiritual realization. ''God Makes the Rivers to Flow'' grew as a collection of such passages.
