“ഞാനെന്റെ വാല്മീകത്തിൽ ഇത്തിരി നേരം ധ്യാന ലീനനായ് ഇരുന്നത് മൗനമായ് മാറാനല്ല. മൗനത്തെ മഹാശബ്ദമാക്കുവാൻ, നിശ്ചഞ്ചല ധ്യാനത്തെ ചലനമായ് ശക്തിയായ് ഉണർത്തുവാൻ. അന്തരിന്ദ്രീയ നാഭീ പത്മത്തിനുള്ളിൽ പ്രാണസ്പന്ദങ്ങൾ സ്വരൂപിച്ച് വിശ്വരൂപങ്ങൾ തീർക്കാൻ. അവയും ഞാനും തമ്മിൽ ഒന്നാകാൻ.”

“How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, “This is better than we thought! The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant?” Instead they say, “No, no, no! My god is a little god, and I want him to stay that way.” A religion, old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the Universe as revealed by modern science might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths.”
