Louise Talma quotes

  • Curb your senses and your mind and see the Lord within your heart.

  • True meditation has no direction or goal. It is pure wordless surrender, pure silent prayer.

  • Meditation is not something restricted to times of formal seated meditation; it is most fundamentally an attitude of being-a resting in and as being. Once you get the feel of it, you will be able to tune into it more and more often during your daily life. Eventually, in the state of liberation, meditation will simply become your natural condition.

  • Meditation is like a gym in which you develop the powerful mental muscles of calm and insight.

  • Proper effort is not the effort to make something particular happen. It is the effort to be aware and awake each moment, the effort to overcome laziness and merit, the effort to make each activity of our day meditation.

  • Of course there are dozens of meditation techniques, but it all comes down to this - just let it all be. Step over here where it is cool, out of the battle. Why not give it a try?

  • This chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra is enacted from the spiritual platform and thus this sound vibration surpasses all lower strata of consciouness - namely sensual, mental and intellectual.

  • I am an artist, you understand? For me, a picture is like poetry. When you make art, this is not coming from an intellectual place. It's coming from the deep side of your unconscious, your soul.

  • He who is not impressed by sound advice, lacks faith.

  • When I fart my ***** makes a trumpet sound that heralds the arrival of the smell.
