Meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone. Slowly slowly, you start feeling a new quality to yourself, a new aliveness, a new beauty, a new intelligence—which is not borrowed from anybody, which is growing within you. It has roots in your existence. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Quiet the mind, and the soul will speak. – Ma Jaya Sati Bhagavati

Nothing contributes so much to tranquillize the mind as a steady purpose – a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. – Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

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