- "Meditation is making research into yourself, and into the subtler fields of activity. Day after day we culture our minds with the deep silence of our own Being.

We decrease activity until silence becomes creative, and we sit in creative silence and close the gates of perception for insight into the content of life" - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
