“Within yourself is a stillness, a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.” —Hermann Hess
Returning to the source
“Returning to the source is stillness, which is the way of nature. The way of nature is unchanging knowing constancy is insight.” — Lao Tzu — Segovia Amil
Awakened into the Mystery

“Meditation is power. Enter chaos from the place of internal stillness, and your stillness becomes a chaos buster.” –— Marianne Williamson

“There is nothing as certain as silence, stillness, and solitude to introduce you to the secrets of yourself.” — Guy Finley

“Be the silent watcher of your thoughts and behaviour. You are beneath the thinker. You are the stillness beneath the mental noise. You are the love and joy beneath the pain.” — Eckhart Tolle
Find a moment of stillness
“Find a moment of stillness, give your heart a chance to tell you where you really need to be.” Dodinsky
