“It is of great importance, when we begin to practise prayer, not to let ourselves be frightened by our own thoughts.”
Santa Teresa de Jesús

“If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath.”
Amit Ray

“if
the ocean
can calm itself,
so can you.
we
are both
salt water
mixed with
air.”
Nayyirah Waheed

“An awake heart is like a sky that pours light.”
Hafiz

“Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me. I see paintings or drawings in the poorest cottages, in the dirtiest corners. And my mind is driven towards these things with an irresistible momentum.”
Vincent van Gogh

“Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in Eternal awareness or Pure consciousness without objectification, knowing without thinking, merging finitude in infinity.”
Voltaire

Ligurian Madonna
