If you ask Zen people they will say; tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation; it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Meditation is the golden key to all the mysteries of life. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Meditation is a process of getting rid of the whole past, of getting rid of all diseases, of getting rid of all the pus that has gathered in you. It is painful, but it is cleansing, and there is no other way to cleanse you. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Meditation, perhaps, is the only alchemy that can transform a beggar into an emperor. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
