Calm the mind



Calm the mind


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


-- Blaise Pascal


"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
