“Speaking as somebody who's been in the drug scene, it's not something you can go on and on doing, you know. It's like drink, or anything, you've got to come to terms with it. You know, like too much food, or too much anything. You've got to get out of it. You're left with yourself all the time, whatever you do--you know, meditation, drugs or anything. But you've got to get down to your own god and your own temple in your head.” KnowsLeftTermToo MuchMeditationGoes OnDrinkSceneDrugTemplesDo You KnowKnow MeDoing You Author:John Lennon
“The meditation I am talking about is not a meditation on something. If you light a lamp and remove all the objects surrounding it, the lamp will still go on giving light. In the same way, if you remove all objects from your consciousness, all thoughts, all imagination, what will happen? – only consciousness will remain.” IfsWayGivingStillsLightHappensImaginationConsciousnessTalkingMeditationObjectsGoes OnRemoveLampsGiving Light Author:Rajneesh
“If you decide to go on a Buddhist path, you have to be careful if you start mixing a lot of different traditions you are not totally familiar with - mixing this kind of meditation with that kind of practice or this kind of visualization with that kind of mantra. Then you really are concocting your own thing, and you have no idea what is going to happen.” IfsKindIdeasDifferentHappensPracticePathMeditationGoes OnTraditionCarefulFamiliarBuddhistNo IdeaBe CarefulVisualizationMantrasMixing Author:Sakyong Mipham
“I like how time goes on set. It's almost like time on an airplane or something where people are together. It's a different, very trippy kind of time, I find, because you're together in imaginary time where you're out of time. You're called upon to be present and honor what can happen in the moment. And the whole day can go like that. The whole day can be a kind of meditation.” PeopleKindDifferentWholeMomentsHappensTogetherMeditationGoes OnHonorAirplaneImaginaryTime Goes OnTrippy Author:Jeff Goldblum
