Prayer requires you to speak and God listens, in meditation, the universe speaks and you listen

BHow can we remove resentment if we are unaware of the extent to which it controls us? We need to look into what makes us provokable.
—Judy Lief, “Train Your Mind: Always meditate on whatever provokes resentment.”
OSHO- I cannot forgive B or M , or other tirthankaras. They raised poverty to spirituality, convinced people, and destroyed thousands of families, millions of people. And the people who became beggars became a burden on the society. Because if you have renounced the world, then you don’t have any right to ask for food from that same world; you don’t have any right to ask for clothes, for shelter, from that same world. This is a strange thing: you condemn the world, and the world feeds you. You renounce the world, and the world supports you. You live on it. These are the people who have reduced the East to poverty, to slavery. No, I am not in favor of poverty.
I have also renounced, and my renunciation is far greater. I have renounced the world of eternal pleasures for this beautiful world of momentary pleasures. I have renounced eternity for the moment; to me it is enough. And I call this contentment.

b We have all kinds of conditioning that prevent us from getting closer to what’s actually happening. With mindfulness, we have the ability to gently let go of those projections so that they don’t intrude on our full experience.
—Sharon Salzberg, “Defining Mindfulness”
—Sebene Selassie, “Meditation Q&A with Sebene Selassie”

There is no evidence that Eliot ever met Chatterji, but where The Waste Land is concerned
the point is not how much Tantric Shaiva philosophy T. S. Eliot may have absorbed, but the
fact that Kashmir Shaivism’s most important exegete—the eleventh-century guru and prolific
author Abhinavagupta (ca. 975-1025 CE)—was a poet as well as a scholar.16 Abhinava was
a key contributor to Indian aesthetic theory, including the classical concept of emotive aesthetics:
Rasa (“juice/flavor/essence”).
