Meditate On This

​"Be a fundamentalist, make sure fun always comes before the mental." 
 - Swami Beyondananda

​"Wag more, bark less."
​- Woof Barker

"Why do meditation masters enjoy playing tennis?
Because the scores always start with love, love. The game always begins with a service. And the winner gets a cup that’s empty." *

"I think there’s 4 important things in life. 
Compassion for self and others. Recognising that others have difficulties in life, just like you, and to treat them as you treat yourself. Allowing and accepting things to be as they are in this present moment. Peace of mind is the highest happiness.
Or just remember the acronym CRAP for short." *

A Meditation student asks their teacher how long it will take them to gain enlightenment if they practice diligently. 
"Ten years," says the teacher. 
"Well, how about if I really work and double my effort?"
"Twenty years."*
