Meditation Quotes

• Meditation is the art of being fully conscious in our actions and thoughts. No thought should pass with out being noticed by us. If we can witness thoughts as they come and go, then slowly we will learn the knack of witnessing the emotions also.
   

• Meditation is nothing but putting the mind aside, putting the mind out of the way, and bringing a witnessing which is always there but hidden underneath the mind. This witnessing will reach to your center, and once you have become enlightened, then there is no problem. Then bring the mind in tune with you. - Osho
   

• Meditation is a knack and like any other knack it takes time to master it. Meditation comes easily when we are not expecting any thing, when we have patience, sincerity and determination for learning the art of meditation.
   

• By becoming more aware, one becomes more aware. There is no other method to it. It is a simple process. Whatsoever you are doing, do it with such consciousness as if it is a question of life and death; as if a sword is hanging over you. - Osho
   

• Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life - perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is the beauty of it. - Jiddu Krishnamurti
   

• Bring awareness to each act. Walking on the road, walk fully alert; eating, eat with awareness. Whatsoever you are doing, don't let the past and the future interfere. Be in the present. That's what awareness is all about. - Osho
   

• Find the source. You must reach the source without fail. The false `I' will disappear and the real `I' will be realized. The former cannot exist apart from the latter. There is now wrong identification of the Self with the body, senses, etc. You proceed to discard these, and this is neti. This can be done only by holding to the one which cannot be discarded. That is iti [that which is].- Ramana Maharshi
   

• Go deep into meditation. And by meditation I mean awareness, watchfulness, witnessing. It is only through meditation that the inner light begins. Otherwise man lives in darkness. Meditation enkindles something that is latent in all of us, but needs to be provoked. We are looking outwards. Our backs are at our inner source; hence it is being neglected, ignored. and to ignore one's inner being is the only ignorance. To know it is the only knowledge. All other knowledge is worthless. It may help you in the world but it can't help you in eternity. Osho
