23nov2014, 10:48, via Eknath Easwaran - This mind of ours is constantly chugging away, even when it is doing nothing. To be able to turn it off and let it rest without thought is to be in heaven. To have a still mind means there is a healing silence everywhere. In this supreme state, you are absolutely fulfilled. You don’t need anything outside yourself. You don’t need to manipulate other people. You don’t need to accumulate material possessions. You don’t need to depend upon any of the unreliable props that modern civilization produces. - Eknath Easwaran, from Take Your Time
