Dr. Wayne W. Dyer on meditation:
 
"What awaits you in the gap is the experience of activating the higher human dimensions of insight, intuition, creativity and
peak performance; as well as coming to know relaxation, enchantment, bliss and the peace of making conscious contact
with God."
 
"By meditating, we come to know God rather than know about God."
