Books Quote by Anonymous
““Give yourself an hour a day, half for exercise and half for meditation. If you give meditation a good college try and decide it’s not for you, use that half hour instead to read some of the books on my Contemplative Reading List (at the end of this chapter). An hour a day, five days a week. You can do more than that if you want, but keep it reasonable.””
