My Personal Top 5 Meditation Quotes.
1. “Through meditation & by giving full attention to one thing at a time, we can learn to direct attention where we choose.”
Eknath Easwaran. (1910-1999, Indian-American professor, author)
2. “Your mind is your instrument. Learn to be its master & not its slave.”

3. “Meditation is not a means to an end. It is both the means & the end.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti. (1895-1986, Indian theosophist)
4. “Existence is not a problem to be solved; it is a mystery to be lived. A problem is something created by the mind; a mystery is something which is there, not created by the mind. A problem has ugliness in it, like disease. A mystery is beautiful. With a problem, immediately a fight arises. You have to solve it; something is wrong, you have to put it right; something is missing; you have to supply the missing link. With a mystery there is no question like that. The moon arises in the night…. It is not a problem, it is a mystery. You have to live with it. You have to dance with it. You have to sing with it, or you can be just silent with it. Something mysterious surrounds you.”
Osha. (Indian mystic & professor of philosopher1931 – 1990)
5. “If you want to connect with your friends more, try the internet. If you want to connect with yourself more, try meditation.”

Meditation Quotations Pt2.
“It is not enough that one surrenders oneself. Surrender is to give oneself up to the original cause of one’s being. Do not delude yourself by imagining such a source to be some God outside you.
