I am a meditator.
When I am meditating, I feel no fear, no ambition, no cowardice.
I read no books; I have no opinions.
I am peaceful.
I have no questions, no answers, no problems.
I feel no anxiety.
I feel no need to help, or to hurt, or to further a cause.
I am neutral.
I am not a threat.
I am smiling.
I don't look into the future or worry about the past.
I am here, now, and I do not hate, or love; I don't think with my brain, but rather I feel with my heart.
Then my heart releases the butterfly thoughts and feelings.
When I am meditating, I don't think, and life is uncomplicated, I feel no obligation to save the world, no obligation to convince others to my way of thinking.
I am serene.
I need not speak a word, or proselytize my beliefs, I just sit quietly, and the entire world benefits from my meditation.
I feel light, everything becomes completely different for me, and the worries of the world that never end are far away.
I am happy.
I begin to understand myself.
I cannot find myself in books, only in this serene reflection.
I cannot lie to myself.
I don't judge others.
I sit up straight; my head is up, my mind is clear.
No hidden agendas, only sitting quietly.
Nothing to conquer, nothing to surrender to.
I don't quit when I become bored, or tired.
I persevere.
For no reason, I persevere.
When I am meditating, I am alone.
No one else is here, but I am never lonely.
My desires fade, my interests in the world die away, my heart lightens.
The conflicts of the human race, they don't touch me here; I look only inside.
I go beyond cutting myself off from society and becoming self-enclosed, I become nothing.
I do nothing.
I want nothing.
I don't worry about people who don't meditate, nor do I want to convert them.
I love all regardless of their beliefs.
I feel free from the dualistic idea that we are separate.
We are all one.
And I am free from that s well.
I have no need for money, no need for dependencies, and no need for attachments.
I am free.
My thoughts reduce, my emotions relax, and my heart is at rest.
When I am meditating, I do not kill, I do not lie, I do not engage in sexual misconduct, I do not take drugs, I do not steal.
I know that my knowledge, my intellect, my human understanding is no more than a mosquito trying to bite an iron bull.
I touch the unmentionable, the never born, that which never dies.
I touch Reality, a reality, that once touched, changes me forever.
I taste the fruit, no longer merely drawing pictures of fruit in my mind.
there is no separation between body and mind, body and soul.
There is only unity.
All is one.
When I am meditating, there are no politics, no family matters, and no religious beliefs, nothing about which to argue.
Only the moment, a moment that is timeless.
I see that the meditation profoundly influences my daily life; I see that my daily life has become calmer and more peaceful.
I see that my daily life and all its conflicts are handled with more wisdom and compassion.
I see that my daily life has become more intelligent and wise, and not prone to being taken in or deceived.
I see that in my daily life, I can more easily tell the difference between that which is helpful and that which is harmful.
I see that pushing an agenda on others is harmful.
I see that in daily life, money and power are rooted in desire, and desire is the root of all human suffering.
I see that in daily life wars are caused by desire; the desire to save face, the desire to spread our particular beliefs and ideals, the desire to dominate, and the desire for power and wealth.
When I am meditating, I seek no power, or to save face, or to spread my beliefs, or to dominate, or to accumulate treasure.
I am happy within my practice; I have no ambition to change your ideals, or to judge your beliefs.
Meditation alone is enough for me; I have no further ambitions.
I see in my daily life a natural discipline growing, it is called unconditional love.
I allow the thoughts to go by, and when the everyday thoughts go by, the subconscious thoughts appear.
And then they go by.
Now this is being aware of something very special, and something which few have experienced, because as the subconscious dies down, there is only the full emptiness, an emptiness that changes one profoundly.
I am a meditator.
