The most fundamental aggression to ourselves, the most fundamental harm we can do to ourselves, is to remain ignorant by not having the courage and the respect to look at ourselves honestly and gently.

The more we witness our emotional reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain.
If you meditate regularly, even when you don’t feel like it, you will make great gains, for it will allow you to see how your thoughts impose limits on you. Your resistances to meditation are your mental prisons in miniature.
Wear gratitude like a cloak and it will feed every corner of your life.

When you transform your mind, everything you experience is transformed.
Movement for me is meditation.
The mind has to be empty to see clearly.
The beauty of meditation is that you never know where you are, where you are going, what the end is.
That deep silence has a melody of its own, a sweetness unknown amid the harsh discords of the world’s sounds.
Next to meditation is music, soulful music, the music that stirs and elevates our aspiring consciousness.
Meditation more than anything in my life was the biggest ingredient of whatever success I’ve had.
The thing to do is to concentrate on the seer and not on the seen, not on the objects, but on the Light which reveals them.
When there are thoughts, it is distraction: when there are no thoughts, it is meditation.
Only a life of prayer and meditation will render a vessel ready for the Master’s use.
