To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.

If I do not know reality, the unknown, how can I search for it? Surely it must come but I cannot go after it. If I go after it I am going after something which is the known, projected by me; by my own mind.

Thought comes to an end. Then there is that sense of absolute silence in the brain. All the movement of thought has ended.

Religion becomes a matter of belief, and belief acts as a limitation on the mind; and the mind then is never free.

In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself.

Only when the mind is still, tranquil, not expecting or grasping or resisting a single thing, is it possible to see what is true. It is the truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

When the mind sees itself in the mirror of relationship, from that perception there is self-knowledge.
