“Reflect that we all have our Poonas, bolt-holes from unpleasant reality. The danger, as Miller is always insisting, of meditation becoming such a bolt-hole. Quietism can be mere self-indulgence. Charismata like masturbations. Masturbations, however, that are dignified, by the amateur mystics who practise them, with all the most sacred names of religion and philosophy. 'The contemplative life.' It can be made a kind of high-brow substitute for Marlene Dietrich: a subject for erotic musings in the twilight. Meditation - valuable, not as a pleasurable end; only as a means for effecting desirable changes in the personality and mode of existence. To live contemplatively is not to live in some deliciously voluptuous or flattering Poona; it is to live in London, but to live there in a non-cockney style.”
― Aldous Huxley, Eyeless in Gaza

“One common analogy used for meditation is that when the water of a lake is agitated by waves, it is difficult to see what is really there. But when the water is still, you can see clearly. The same is true of your mind - when it is calm you can see and experience inner peace.”
― Swami Saradananda, Sitting Comfortably: Preparing the Mind and Body for Peaceful Meditation

― Bodhisattva Shree Swami Premodayava

“All meditation starts with the root of intention.”

“No matter what the tree, they all grow from one seed, which takes root and branches out. Meditation is like the lotus tree. Rich with many, many layers, leaves and petals. It blossoms to be a vibrant flower, but at its core, it is the same, basic principle, ~ the seed you plant.”
― Andrew Pacholyk, Lead Us To A Place: Your Spiritual Journey Through Life's Seasons

In reading self-help and personal growth books, I began to understand when there is a reoccurring problem, such as the financial hardship we experienced, the underlying higher messages want to be revealed. They will make a continuous unyielding effort to get our attention. The opportunity that lies within crisis is, for you to be willing to look closely and identify the underlying patterns and message in what is happening around you.”
― Bridgitte Jackson-Buckley, The Gift of Crisis: How I Used Meditation to Go From Financial Failure to a Life of Purpose

“There is only one failure in meditation: the failure to meditate faithfully. ... Put your meditation first and everything else second; you will find, for one thing, that it enriches everything else. ... If you are harassed by personal anxieties, it is all the more important to have your meditation; it will release the resources you need to solve the problems at hand. To make progress in meditation, we have to be not only systematic but sincere too.”
― Eknath Easwaran, Passage Meditation (Essential Easwaran Library) by Eknath Easwaran ( 2008 ) Paperback

“This word “meditation” means many different things to different people. It has been applied to dancing and to listening to music and even to letting the mind wander, which is just the opposite of meditation. I want to explain right from the outset that when I talk about meditation, I mean only one thing: systematically training the mind to focus completely on a lofty ideal until that ideal absorbs our every faculty and passion.”
― Eknath Easwaran, Love Never Faileth: Eknath Easwaran on St. Francis, St. Augustine, St. Paul, and Mother Teresa

“Meditation should not be a forced effort. If it is forced, it is doomed from the very beginning. A forced thing will never make you natural. There is no need to create unnecessary conflict. This is to be understood because mind has a natural capacity to meditate if you give it objects which are appealing to it. If you are body oriented, there are ways you can reach towards God through the body because the body also belongs to God. If you feel you are heart oriented, then prayer. If you feel you are intellect oriented, then meditation.”
― Rajneesh, The Orange Book: The Meditation Techniques of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
