Meditation is the science of God-realization. It is the most practical science in the world. Most people would want to meditate if they understood its value and experienced its beneficial effects. The ultimate object of meditation is to attain conscious awareness of God, and of the soul's eternal oneness with Him. What achievement could be more purposeful and useful than to harness limited human faculties to the omnipresence and omnipotence of the Creator? God-realization bestows on the meditator the blessings of the Lord's peace, love, joy, power, and wisdom. - Paramhansa YoganandaIl segreto della meditazione è inviare verso l'alto nei cieli dell'Infinito, come uno stormo di uccelli, tutti i pensieri vaganti nella tua mente, fino a vederli dissolvere in lontananza. - Swami Kriyananda
