Meditation: gripped in gratitude.

The speed by which the goal can be reached depends on this one thing alone; your willingness to practice every step.

Meditation: quietly solving the equality existence = consciousness = bliss.

It's not all plain sailing.

Meditation: fully entertained by the simplicity and richness of pure existence. Nothing more, nothing less.

Happiness is a question of attitude, not a question of what's happening out there.

The female principle is restive, the male restless.

Unfortunately, the work, unless occasionally regulated by an eminently qualified master, starts to serve the prevailing power structure rather than subvert it; supports established conservative values rather than radical movement. The way Indian yoga ends up serving the caste system, or Tibetan Buddhism maintains archaic feudalism, or American Christianity fronts social iniquity and the horrible 'War on Terror.'

The miracle of the New Testament is that it is always New; it doesn't age. This is because it is all about spirit.

Become a radical and develop a root.

Happiness is reverence for all life.

Here in Moshav Ofer there is a pond, which, as well as proving a breeding ground for a large and healthy population of mosquitoes, also hosts a veritable cacophony of frogs. Every now and then, whilst meditating the early hours away, I hear one croaking past my window in search of a better life, a destiny.

A root is vital, as necessary as the air we breathe.

Imagine you're rocking a baby to sleep and any loss of attention will set it balling. This is the work: constant unremittent attention.

To Love is to share and serve.
