Calm The Mind



"All man's miseries derive from not being able to sit quietly in a room
alone."

~ Blaise Pascal



Meditation calms our minds and makes it easier for us to pay attention
to the reality around and within us. Meditation breaks through the
masks that have built up as our identity. It helps us see through our
defenses and connect with unacknowledged and unloved aspects of ourselves.
It opens us to higher mind and the voice of intuition.



We can consciously choose meditation as a way to become more aware of
who we truly are. If we don't take the initiative to open to our
authentic selves, we can be certain that deep challenge and pain from life
experience will push us to awaken.



"Meditation helps me feel the shape, the texture of my inner life.
Here, in the quiet, I can begin to taste what Buddhists would call my true
nature, what Jews call the still, small voice, what Christians call the
holy spirit."

~ Wayne Muller



"In a world filled with noise, we need to quiet ourselves to hear God's
voice."

~ Paul Borthwick
