meditate on God - may your heart fill with God's Light


"Meditate on Kali! Why be anxious? The night of delusion is over; it's almost dawn. The sun is rising, dispelling thick nets of darkness, and lotuses are blooming thanks to Siva at the top of your head." -ramprasad sen

I believe that God is in me as the sun is in the colour and fragrance of a flower — the Light in my darkness, the Voice in my silence. — Helen Keller

This magnificent refuge is inside you. Enter. Shatter the darkness that shrouds the doorway. Step around the poisonous vipers that slither at your feet, attempting to throw you of your course. Be bold. Be humble. Put away the incense and forget the incantations they taught you. Ask no permission from the authorities. Slip away. Close your eyes and follow your breath to the still place that leads to the invisible path that leads you home. — Saint Teresa of Avila, Interior Castle

Let darkness be my light;
may my greatness lie in the lowest place.
Send me up the short, steep path;
make the cross my glory. — Saint Teresa of Avila, Life
