On Meditation
Meditation is not an effort against the mind. It is a way of understanding the mind. It is a very loving way of witnessing the mind.

"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which they were created" (Albert Einstein)
"Those who have not found their true wealth, which is the radiant joy of Being and the deep, unshakable peace that comes with it, are beggars, even if they have great material wealth. They are looking outside for scraps of pleasure or fulfillment, for validation, security, or love, while they have a treasure within that not only includes all those thing but is infinitely greater than anything the world can offer." (Eckhart Tolle)
"There is nowhere to arrive in meditation, nothing to achieve, nothing to get. It is simply sitting quietly with yourself and letting everything be as it is. This is surprisingly difficult since the mind is so habitually busy. I could tell that you seeing meditation as a something "to do" and that there should be a result to obtain.Trust me when I say there is huge value is being quiet and attaining nothing. Think of it as a mental rest from everything else you are doing and in that rest, you are allowing your mindbody to recharge as it needs to. There is nothing you have to do but sit and know that you are benefiting from doing so." (Eric Reynolds)
Allow yourself to open to meditation, then trust your natural responses; and everything will take its place:

Zen Wisdom
Thought is a language that has no sound,
while words are the symbols of a language.
When language and thinking are excessive,
they become a hindrance to wisdom.

On Meditation
While meditating I sit quietly and rest in the nature of mind; I don't question or doubt whether I am in the "correct" state or not.
There is no effort, only rich understanding, wakefulness, and unshakable certainty.
When I am in the nature of mind, the ordinary mind is no longer there.
There is no need to sustain or confirm a sense of being: I simply am.
Sogyal Rinpoche

Spiritual Wisdom
No more nonsense!
Lose yourself, and the hell of your heart becomes a heaven.
Lose yourself, and anything can be accomplished.
Your selfishness is an untrained colt.

Spiritual Wisdom
Seek no reward for any labour done.
The labour itself is reward sufficient to the labourer who loves is labour.

On Meditation
Meditation consists in undoing the results of the false working of imagination, or dropping the folds of the veil of personality, which has created a sense of unassailable separateness and irredeemable isolation.

Spiritual Wisdom
Remember, life is not made of great things, it is made of very small things. In the early morning, sipping a cup of tea, do it totally, as if this is the last cup of tea you will ever sip again. Take each moment and squeeze the whole juice of it.

Spiritual Wisdom
Everything is dependent on everything else,
everything is connected, nothing is separate.
Therefore everything is going in the only way it can go.

On meditation
While meditating if we force our breath to be too long or too short we're not balanced, the mind won't be at peace. Don't get concerned over how long or short, weak or strong it is, just note it. Know it's there. Simply let it be.

Our Center
Sadness, anger, envy or fear have nothing bad in itself: a painful emotion indicates only that we left the center.
When you are at peace, the whole universe is at peace. What seemed like a cacophony becomes like a heavenly music : a symphony for an alone mind.
