**********************
Notice that just as you can stop your breath for a moment,
you can stop your thoughts for a moment,
which means you can have Peace for a moment.
And once you feel that Peace,
even when the breath resumes,
and the mind resumes,
you can keep your 'I' on the peace,
you can keep your finger on the pulse,
on that Rhythm,
on that Joy,
even when anger comes,
even when sadness comes.
Your greatest power is your ability to feel Joy, even in the grief,
even in these changes.
Can you see?
"Can't you see it's all perfect?" - Maharajji

"Do not sit with your eyes closed and imagine you are praying to Allah;
do not think that just because your eyes are shut you have shut out everything else.
Open the eyes of your heart when you pray, and you will understand good and evil.
Then stay with the good and discard the bad." -Muhammad Raheem Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, Sufi Quotations- pg. 331
"It happened that in America, there was a man who was very, very efficient in reading other people's thoughts - a mindreader. He was always a hundred percent right.
He would sit before you; you would close your eyes and start thinking, and he would close his eyes and start talking about what you were thinking. Immediately that you would think, the thought would be transferred and he would receive it. This is an art. Many people know about it. It can be learned, you can do it, because thought is a subtle vibration. If you are receptive the other mind becomes a broadcasting station, you become the receiver. Thought is a broadcast because ripples arise in the electricity around the man. If you are silent enough, receptive, you will catch them.
When Meher Baba was in America, somebody brought a man to Meher Baba. The man had lived for many years in silence. The man sat before Meher Baba, closed his eyes and meditated and meditated and meditated. Again he would open his eyes and look at Meher Baba. It took too long; people became worried. They said, 'You never took such a long time.' The man said, 'Well, what to do? This man is not thinking at all. There is no thought.'
The East says, 'Dreaming itself is pathology.' It is a sort of illness; it is a disturbance. When you are really silent, thinking disappears in the day and dreaming disappears at night. Thinking and dreaming are two aspects of the same thing: during the day while you are awake, it is thinking, and at night while you are asleep, it is dreaming.
Dreaming and thinking are both the same. When dreaming stops, thinking stops; when thinking stops, dreaming stops. The whole effort in the East has been: how to drop the whole thing. We are not worried about how to adjust it or how to interpret it, but how to drop it."
