  33. If you are quiet enough, you will hear the flow of the universe. You will feel its rhythm. Go with this flow. Happiness lies ahead. Meditation is key.
  34. Meditation will not carry you to another world, but it will reveal the most profound and awesome dimensions of the world in which you already live.

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

Then whatever you do is poetry in itself. You live poetry; your walking becomes dancing; your silence becomes music. Osho
  37. Meditation is a process of lightening up, of trusting the basic goodness of what we have and who we are, and of realizing that any wisdom that exists, exists in what we already have. We can lead our life so as to become more awake to who we are and what we’re doing rather than trying to improve or change or get rid of who we are or what we’re doing. The key is to wake up, to become more alert, more inquisitive and curious about ourselves. Pema Chodron
  38. When your attention moves into the Now, there is an alertness. It is as if you were waking up from a dream, the dream of thought, the dream of past and future. Such clarity, such simplicity. No room for problem-making. Just this moment as it is. Eckhart Tolle
  39. Meditation is meeting eternity in the present moment. It is resolving every problem as it comes. It is resolving every tension as it creeps in. It is facing the challenges of life in a non-fearful way. Vimala Thakar
  40. Mindfulness helps us get better at seeing the difference between what’s happening and the stories we tell ourselves about what’s happening, stories that get in the way of direct experience. Often such stories treat a fleeting state of mind as if it were our entire and permanent self. Sharon Salzberg
  41. The thing about meditation is…you become more and more you. David Lynch
  42. Meditation is like giving a hug to ourselves, getting in touch with that awesome reality in us. While meditating we feel a deep sense of intimacy with God, a love that is inexplicable. Paramahansa Yogananda
  43. Meditation is another dimension of natural beauty. People talk about appreciating natural beauty—climbing mountains, seeing giraffes and tigers in Africa, and all sorts of things. But nobody seems to appreciate this kind of natural beauty of ourselves. This is actually far more beautiful than flora and fauna, far more fantastic, far more painful and colorful and delightful. Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
  44. It’s not about being good at something. It’s about being good to yourself.
  45. Inhale the future, exhale the past.
  46. The pose begins when you want to leave it.
  47. You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.
  48. Don’t move the way fear makes you move. Move the way love makes you move. Move the way joy makes you move. Osho
  49. Its never too late its never too bad and your never too old or too sick to start from scratch once again. Bikram Choudury
  50. Change is not only inevitable, but always happening. When you truly embrace this concept of change being constant, the only thing left to do is grow, detach, venture inwards, touch the spirit and find your source — the one responsible for keeping you grounded through the ever-changing seasons of life. Julie Weiland
  51. Your soul is your best friend. Treat it with care, nurture it with growth, feed it with love. Ashourina Yalda
