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

Just to be and not be a person is the whole art of meditation, the whole art of inner ecstasy. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

Meditation is the most significant because it opens the door for all other significant things: love, prayer, God, light, music, poetry. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

True meditation gives us, as it were, wings for flight to a higher realm and thus detaches us from terrestrial fetters. – Paramananda
