It is a commonly held view that meditation is a way to shut off the pressures of the world or of your own mind, but this is not an accurate impression. Meditation is neither shutting things out nor off. It is seeing clearly, and deliberately positioning yourself differently in relationship to them.
-- Jon Kabat-Zinn
At the heart of each of us, whatever our imperfections, there exists a silent pulse of perfect rhythm - a complex of wave forms and resonances which is absolutely individual and unique and yet which connects us to everything in the universe.
- George Leonard
There are no ends in life, only processes. Change. Spiritual reality is physical reality, clearly seen.

Nature ever flows, stands never still.
Motion or change is her mode of existenca.
The poetic eye sees in Man the Brother of the River
and in Woman the Sister of the River.
Their life is always transitions.
Hard blockheads only drive nails
all the time; forever...fixing.
Heroes do not fix, but flow,
bend forward ever and
invent a resource for every moment.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
We never know which will come first:
Our next breath or,
Our next life.
Tibetan Proverb.
