"Meditation is an art of independent thinking. One who meditates is one who thinks independently. Opponents of Eastern meditation are enemies of free and independent thinking. Freedom of thought, freedom of independent listening and experiencing Divinity: these are the cornerstones of yoga and revival in the holy spirit, the foundation of the Age of Aquarius." Swami Baba Shivananda G.P.
