MEDITATION & DEVOTION Most of our life issues and psychological problems occur from a lack of love and devotion. We are searching for love outside of ourselves. We are seeking to be loved, rather than to give love. A criteria of spiritual maturity is when we begin to give love, rather than to ask for love. Through developing love and devotion, we learn to love all beings. We develop our inner being, the meditative quality within, the inner source of love and truth, the divine source inside ourselves, through which we can let love flow through us, not only to benefit ourselves, but for the good of all.

About This Quote

When we choose to practice meditation, we are inviting our inner being into our consciousness. As a result of meditation, our mind becomes quiet and clears, and in its place is a spaciousness filled with love and devotion. This is the meditative quality within. When we develop the meditative quality within, we begin to see ourselves as being a part of something much larger than ourselves. This is the divine source inside ourselves, through which we can let love flow through us, not only to benefit ourselves, but for the good of all.
