"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."- Buddha
"A human being is a microcosmos, i.e. the laws prevailing in the cosmos also operate in the minutest space of the human being."-Viktor Schauberger
You can't discuss the (Way) with a Cramped Scholar - they're Shackled by their doctrines."-Confucius
"Trees and animals, humans and insects, flowers and birds: these are active images of the subtle energies that flow from the stars throughout the universe.
Meeting and combining with each other and the elements of the Earth, they give rise to all living things.
The superior person understands this, and understands that her own energies play a part in it.
Understanding these things, one respects the Earth as his or her mother, the heavens as his or her father, and all living things as his or her brothers and sisters."-Lao Tzu
"Man goes to great trouble to acquire knowledge of the material world. He learns all branches of mundane science. He explores the earth, and even travels to the moon.
Yet he never tries to find out what exists within himself.
Because he is unaware of the enormous power which lies hidden within him, he looks for support in the outer world.
Because he doesn't know the boundless happiness which lies inside his heart, he looks for satisfaction in mundane activities and pleasures.
Because he doesn't experience the inner love, he looks for love from others.
The truth is that the inner Self of every human being is supremely great.
Everything is contained in the Self.
The creative power of this entire universe lives inside everyone of us.
The divine Principle which creates and sustains this world pulsates within us in the form of supremely blissful light. It scintillates in the heart, and shines through all our senses.
If, instead of pursuing knowledge of the outer world, we were to pursue inner knowledge, we would discover that effulgence very soon."- "I Am That", page 1, Interpreter : Baba Muktananda Maharaj
"Real "Prayer":"Trance States":"Meditation" is the Difference Between saying "Thank You" to someone holding the door for you, and actually feeling Thankful when :Closing your Eyes: and Visioning (Thinking Of) Loved Ones, You'd be Surprised what can be Manifested with Real Prayer"-Nicholas Ellis
"One Hour of Purely Distilled:Blissful Meditation (Focusing on Sunsets : Sunrises : Beautiful Natural Scenery), is More Effective than 70 Years of Prayer"-Prophet Muhammad
"Humans can project energy by focusing our thoughts and attention in the desired direction, in that where attention goes, energy flows"
"It means that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are not enlightened by fixed teachings but by an intuitive process that is spontaneous and natural."-Buddha
Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future. Live the actual moment. Only this moment is life. Thich Nhat Hanh
Life can be found only in the present moment.
The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life. - Thich Nhat Hanh
"What we think, we become." - Buddha
"We are formed and molded by our thoughts.
Those whose minds are shaped by selfless thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy follows them like a shadow that never leaves them." - Buddha
"The mind is everything. What you think you become". - Buddha
"We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world." - Buddha
"A person is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes." - Mohandas Gandhi
It is your own thoughts which will lead you to reward or punishment, as if you had been destined therefor. - Prophet Muhammad
"Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own thoughts and actions." - Dalai Lama

"Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water.
Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water.
Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle;
You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot.
Now water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend."-Bruce Lee
