“All creations are one with the universe. Look at the world around you. Can you effectively separate yourself from everything else? After seriously pondering this, most of us rapidly conclude that we cannot. To even make the statement that I exist as a unique entity requires comparison with something else. (If you exist as a distinct being, your distinctiveness is in comparison to other creations. No other creations, no individual you.)” IfsWorldLooksUniverseIndividualMeditationCreationUniqueStatementsComparisonEntityPondering Author:H. E Davey
“Meditation is the emptying of the mind of all the things that the mind has put together. If you do that -perhaps you won't, but it doesn't matter, just listen to this- you will find that there is an extraordinary space in the mind, and that space is freedom. So you must demand freedom at the very beginning, and not just wait, hoping to have it at the end. You must seek out the significance of freedom in your work, in your relationships, in everything that you do. Then you will find that meditation is creation.” IfsMindEndsMatterTogetherWaitingSpaceMeditationCreationDemandExtraordinarySignificanceOur RelationshipJust Listen Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti
“The way to freedom is through service to others. The way to happiness is through meditation and being in tune with God... break the barriers of your ego, shed selfishness, free yourself from the consciousness of the body, forget yourself, do away with this prison house of incarnations, melt your heart in all, be one with creation.” WayHeartBodyHouseForgetConsciousnessBreakMeditationCreationEgoPrisonSelfishnessTunesBarriersShedIncarnationService To OthersForget YouFree Yourself Author:Paramahansa Yogananda
“At one point I learned transcendental meditation. This was 30-something years ago. It took me back to the way that I naturally was as a child growing up way in the country, rarely seeing people. I was in that state of oneness with creation and it was as if I didn't exist except as a part of everything.” PeopleIfsWayYearsChildrenCountryStatesGrowing UpMeditationGrowingSeeingCreationYears AgoOnenessTranscendentalTranscendental MeditationChildren Growing UpGrowing Children Author:Alice Walker
