...All that moves will exhaust itself...

...Only that which is still...

...is for always...

...Meditation is essentially to move towards that stillness...

...to become like the core of existence...

- Sadhguru -

...Meditation is not an act...

..It is a quality...

...Jogging...

...Dancing...

...Swimming...

...anything can be meditation...

...My definition of meditation is -

...whenever your body , mind and soul are functioning together in rhythm...

...it is meditation because it will bring...

...the FOURTH in...

- OSHO -

...Mindful walking is a wonderful way to bring together body and mind... 

...Every step brings you home to the here and the now, 

so you can connect with yourself, your body, and your feelings... 

...That is a real connection... 

...You don’t need a device that tells you how many steps you’ve walked or how many calories 

you’ve burned... 

...Focus your attention on your breath and your step... 

...Be aware of your foot, its movement, and the ground you’re touching... 

...While you focus your attention on making the step, you are free, 

...because in that time your mind is only with the step you are making...

- Thich Nhat Hanh -

...The practice of mindfulness is like a boat... 

...and by practicing mindfulness , you offer yourself a boat... 

...As long as you continue to practice... 

...as long as you stay in the boat... 

...you will not sink or drown in the river of suffering...

- Thich Nhat Hanh -

...To meditate , there is no need to go to India...

...or to a monastery...

...or to look to any teacher...

...If you know how to look...

...everything is in you...

THE ALCHEMY OF HAPPINESS

...Meditation is a must...

...before you can LOVE...

...One should be capable of being alone...

...utterly alone...

...and yet tremendously blissful...

...Then you can love...

- OSHO -

...Life is a sheer joy , a playfulness , a fun , a laughter , for no purpose at all... 

...Life is its own end , it has no other end...

...The moment you understand it , you have understood what meditation is all about... 

...It is living your life joyously , playfully , totally...

...and with no purpose at the end...

...with no purpose in view... 

...no purpose there at all... 

...Just like small children playing on the sea beach , collecting seashells and colored stones...

...for what purpose ?...

...There is no purpose at all...

- OSHO -

...That’s what meditation is all about, to be capable of being alone... 

...And remember, aloneness is not loneliness... 

...Loneliness is the state of the person who cannot live alone... 

...loneliness means you are dependent on the crowd, on the other... 

...Aloneness means you are happy with yourself, you are not dependent on anybody... 

...The moment you are not dependent you are an emperor, you are a god, a goddess... 

...Now you have something to share, you can go into the world... 

- OSHO -

...The art of meditation is a way of getting into touch with REALITY, 

and the reason for it is that most civilized people are out of touch with reality 

because they confuse the world as it is with the world as they think about it 

and talk about it and describe it... 

...For on the one hand there is the real world 

and on the other there is a whole system of symbols 

about that world which we have in our minds... 

...These are very very useful symbols, all civilization depends on them, 

but like all good things they have their disadvantages, 

and the principle disadvantage of symbols is that we confuse them with reality, 

just as we confuse money with actual wealth...

 - Alan Watts -

...My meditation is simple...

...It does not require any complex practices...

...It is simple...

...It is singing...

...It is dancing...

...It is sitting silently...
