The real spiritual progress of the aspirant is measured by the extent to which he achieves inner tranquility.
Live in the present, forget the past. Give up hopes of future.
The secret of life is in the love of God and the service of humanity.
The mental ability to concentrate is inherent to all; it is not extraordinary or mysterious. Meditation is not something that a Yogi has to teach you; you already have the ability to shut out thoughts.
The inward battle – against our mind, our wounds, and the residues of the past – is more terrible than outward battle.
There is some truth in everything. Views and opinions are different aspects. Do not quarrel with others.
You are not bound. You have got free will. You cannot change the experiences, the results of Prarabdha but you can change your future by right thinking and right action and thus make your will pure and irresistible. You can attain Self-realisatio n with the help of a dynamic will.
Truth is complete in itself. Truth has a strong foundation in itself. It is bold, it has no fears. It has no limit of space or time. It is a fearless, free bird in the sky. It does not care for status. It is wealth in itself. Truth stands even when there is no public support.
Eating, drinking. sleeping, pro-creating. A little laughter, a lot of tears. Is this all there is to life? Don’t die like a worm on the surface of the planet. WAKE UP and be all that you can be, you are so much more than that.
Your thoughts should agree with your words, and the words should agree with your actions. In this world people think one thing, say another thing, and do something else. This is horrible. This is crookedness.
When you have succeeded in enshrining God within your heart, you will see Him everywhere.
You are already free. You only have to know and realize this truth.
Rise above the deceptions and temptations of the mind. This is your duty. You are born for this only; all other duties are self-created and self-imposed owing to ignorance.
Never worry. Be ever cheerful. Always laugh and smile. You can use the following powerful autosuggestion: “Mr. Worry, goodbye to you. I am a different person now. I am made of sterner stuff.” Worry will now be afraid to show his face to you. You can then remove the worries of many of your friends.
Always do good to others. Be selfless. Mentally remove everything and be free. This is divine life. This is the direct way to Moksha or salvation.
Pain, sorrow, ignorance are all illusory; they cannot live. Bliss, joy, knowledge are true; they cannot die.
One can realize God through kirtan alone.
Fame is the penalty of success. Jealousy is the penalty of fame.
Your sole purpose in life is to attain God-realization. All else is useless and worthless.
Do not love leisure. Waste not a minute. Be bold. Realize the Truth, here and now!
