Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in pure consciousness without objectification; knowing without thinking – merging finitude in infinity.

Japanese proverb

Being neither this nor that

As long as I am this or that, or have this or that, I am not all things and I have not all things. Become pure till you neither are nor have either this or that; then you are omnipresent and, being neither this nor that, are all things.

“Then what have you come to me for?” asked the master.
“To learn to accept what lies in between.”

If you want to see the brave, look for those who can forgive.
