"Let the mind be empty, and not filled……" — Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Let the mind be empty, and not filled with the things of the mind. Then there is only meditation, and not a meditor who is meditating . . . The mind must be clear, without movement, and in the light of that clarity the timeless will be revealed."
