“How do we meditate silently? Just by not talking, just by not using outer words, we are not doing silent meditation. Silent meditation is totally different. When we start meditating in silence, right from the beginning we feel the bottom of a sea within us and without. The life of activity movement and restlessness is on the surface, but deep below, underneath our human life, there is poise and silence. So, either we shall imagine this sea of silence within us or we shall feel that we are nothing but a sea of poise itself.” FeelsHumansDifferentSilenceTalkingMeditationImagineSeaMovementActivitySilentBottomSurfaceHuman LifeNot TalkingMeditatingRestlessnessPoiseSilent Meditation Author:Sri Chinmoy
“When you meditate, what you actually do is to enter into a calm or still, silent mind. We have to be fully aware of the arrival and attack of thoughts. That is to say, we shall not allow any thought, divine or undivine, good or bad, to enter into our mind. Our mind should be absolutely silent. Then we have to go deep within; there we have to observe our real existence.” ShouldMindStillsRealExistenceMeditationDivineSilentCalmArrivalsMeditatingDeep WithinMeditation MindDeep MeditationSilent MeditationSilent Mind Author:Sri Chinmoy
“The meditation that gives you immediate joy or continuous joy is the best meditation for you. Everyone will not have the same meditation. Your meditation will not suit me, my meditation will not suit you. You like a certain food, I don't like it. You are right in your own way I am right in my own way. But once you know what your best meditation is, please stick to it.” KnowsWayGivingJoyCertainMy OwnMeditationPleaseSticksSuitsSuits You Author:Sri Chinmoy
“How do you meditate? You meditate with an inner cry. There should be an inner cry here, in the heart. The outer cry is ego-centred; it wants name and fame. ... While you are feeling this inner cry, you try to make the mind absolutely calm and quiet. If a thought enters your mind, you try to reject it. Consider this thought as a fly. When a fly comes to land on your arm, you don't allow the fly to remain; you just wave your hand and it goes away.” IfsWantShouldTryingMindHeartFeelingsHandsNamesMeditationLandCryArmsFameQuietEgoCalmWaveRejects Author:Sri Chinmoy
