It is only through meditation that we can get lasting peace, divine peace. If we meditate soulfully in the morning and receive peace for only one minute, that one minute of peace will permeate our whole day. And when we have a meditation of the highest order, then we really get abiding peace, light and delight. We need meditation because we want to grow in light and fulfill ourselves in light. If this is our aspiration, if this is our thirst, then meditation is the only way. Sri Chinmoy
About This Quote

Peace is the prize of meditation. It is the beautiful flower that sits on top of that mountain of clouds, that rises above all the other flowers, the only one that has no thorns, that has no limitations. Peace is not just a temporary feeling of calmness, it is something real. People often think of peace as an escape from pain, but it is possible to experience peace as a way to experience more and more joy and happiness.
