VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: 82 Notes, Quotes and Thoughts

10-In real meditation, the voice of God is trying to speak to us. If our windows are soiled, the sun's rays are hindered; but that fact is no denial of the truth that whatever light does come through our windows comes from the sun.

11-"Extreme humbleness and utter devotion are necessary to call Krishna to the heart. Then, when earthly knowledge, reasoning and striving are completely burnt to ashes, the soul's eyes can perceive God..." --Bhaktivinode

15-"Any bona fide name of God is spiritual, and by chanting it, we become spiritualized. When we contact electricity, we become electrified, regardless of the medium carrying the electricity. The understanding should be that God's name is not material but spiritual and nondifferent from Him."

"It is only in prayer that we can communicate with one another at the deepest level of our being. Behind all words and gestures, behind all thoughts and feelings, there is an inner centre of prayer where we can meet one another in the presence of God." ~Fr. Bede Griffiths
