Samatha Meditation/contemporary Therav%c4%81da Interpretations

Famous quotes containing the words meditation and/or contemporary:

    Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be
    acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
    Bible: Hebrew Psalm XIX (l. XIX, 14)

    I have the strong impression that contemporary middle-class women do seem prone to feelings of inadequacy. We worry that we do not measure up to some undefined level, some mythical idealized female standard. When we see some women juggling with apparent ease, we suspect that we are grossly inadequate for our own obvious struggles.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
