he tend to think of meditation in only one way. But life itself is a meditation.
Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when,whatever be the attitude of the body,the soul is on its knees.''

''A beginner needs a quiet place to meditate. Someone with a lot of practice can meditate everywhere and under all circumstances.''
because in the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few!
''If there is pain, use it as an awareness, as meditation, as a sharpening of the soul. And when pleasure is there, use it as a droning, as a forgetfulness. Both are ways to reach God. One is to remember yourself totally, and one is to forget yourself totally.''
if there is a pain go to doctor!
''Forbear to judge,for we are sinners all.
Close up his eyes and draw the curtain close;
And let us all to meditation.''
I am going to seek a great purpose, draw the curtain, the farce is played.

What we are is God's gift to us. What we become is our gift to God.

''A man prayed: O God, let me hear you.
The thunder roared.
But he didn't hear.
O God, let me see you.
A rose blossomed right in front of him.
But he didn't see.
O God, let me feel you.
And he brushed away a butterfly that landed on his hand.''
“Seeing's believing, but feeling's the truth”
All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.

In cathedrals of our own.''
''Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.''
