Meditation is earnest prayer, and when prayer progresses, it becomes true meditation.

The sensation of energy expands with increasing relaxation.

We may not be able to create or control all of the events that impact our lives but we can create and control our responses to everything that we experience.

We live with many thoughts, emotions, and habits, but at the same time we have other eyes, another mind capable of watching all of these things. Those who practice self-cultivation find that mind; they live with it and they die with it.

When you find the absolute values, you are important to this world because you know what is important. Those who know what is truly important are helpful to this world, because they won't put their personal concerns before what is important to all.

The person with a safe center doesn't fear change. We can choose change without fear before a challenge only when we are strongly centered.

The best way to become more creative is to create nothing. By this, I mean that you should return to zero point. Rid yourself of all the mental and emotional blocks that keep you from manifesting your full creative potential.
