― Amit Ray, Om Chanting and Meditation

“I meditate, and when I do, Prince Harry appears in my subconscious and meditates with me. It's a little strange but I don't think there's anything I can do about it. Sometimes he's not the only one; the other day it was me, Prince Harry, the Dalai Lama, Mr. Rogers, Coco the gorilla, and George Clooney. We were all floating above the earth looking down at the continents as they passed. George Clooney suggested I visit Providence, Rhode Island. The Dalai Lama sighed deeply and said he'd like to visit Tibet.
Poor Dalai Lama.”

“Meditation is a mysterious method of self-restoration.

It involves “shutting” out the outside world, and by that means sensing the universal “presence” which is, incidentally, absolute perfect peace.

It is basically an existential “time-out”—a way to “come up for a breath of air” out of the noisy clutter of the world.

But don’t be afraid, there is nothing arcane or supernatural or creepy about the notion of taking a time-out. Ball players do it. Kids do it, when prompted by their parents. Heck, even your computer does it (and sometimes not when you want it to).

So, why not you?

A meditation can be as simple as taking a series of easy breaths, and slowly, gently counting to ten in your mind.”
― Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration

“[When I meditate,] there in the deep, I could sense something circulating inside me. It was a Knowing. I can know things down at this level that I can't on the chaotic surface. Down here, when I pose a question about my life I sense a nudge. The nudge guides me towards [...] the next right thing, one thing at a time. That was how I began to know what to do next. That was how I began to walk through my life more clearly, solid and steady.”

Because beneath the noise of the pounding, swirling surf is a place where all is quiet and clear. The chaos stills in this deep.”
― Glennon Doyle, Get Untamed: The Journal

“The way I see meditation is this, you can take your car through a carwash, but on the inside, it remains messy, and dirty. Most religions are carwashes. They will tell you the car looks great, because they cannot see the inside. But it is better to clean the inside first, and then later, you can drive it through a rainstorm.”
― Jack Freestone

“The Abundant Chamber by Stewart Stafford

Divest yourself of sword and coin,
And burn all your illusions and airs,
Let the cave mouth swallow you,
Go willingly into its dark recesses.

A comforting seashell to the ear,
There is no sound out of place,
Stillness a vast garment grounded,
Encroaching ambiance calms.

Now look within and take stock,
Have you reached your apotheosis?
Be cleansed by pure water pools,
Then become reborn to the light.

“Solve all your problems through meditation.
Exchange unprofitable religious speculations for actual God-contact.
Clear your mind of dogmatic theological debris; let in the fresh, healing waters of direct perception.
Attune yourself to the active inner Guidance; the Divine Voice has the answer to every dilemma of life.”
― Lahiri Mahasaya

“The mind matter, therefore, meditate.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita

“The routes of life are not easy enough. To make a drama out of a crisis never works, it complicates the movements furher.

The sight of rugged, craggy, harsh mountains always remind us of levelled, untroubled, friendly hills. So it becomes a prerequisite to perceive well. Perception is a whole ball of wax.

Because, at the end of the day, the only thing that we can control and rein is 'Ourselves'.

So learn to absorb yourself.
Be a curator of Peace.
Love unconditionally.
Respect yourself first and then others.
Self-reflect.

And.. Meditate with the Moon.”
― Monika Ajay Kaul
