A simple man will have only what he needs, and he will know the difference between what he needs and what he wants. We feel that whatever we want, we desperately need. But before we possess the world, to our wide surprise we see that the world has already possessed us.
My mind’s cries tell me that everything on earth is tragic. My heart’s smiles tell me that everything on earth is magic.
A moment’s truth can and shall make the world beautiful. A moment’s peace can and shall save the world. A moment’s love can and shall make the world perfect.
In between your failure-tree And your triumph-tree, The tree that is growing Is known as your patience-tree.
Hope abides; therefore I abide. Countless frustrations have not cowed me. I am still alive, vibrant with life. The black cloud will disappear, The morning sun will appear once again In all its supernal glory.
Spirituality is man’s conscious longing for God. Spirituality tells us that God, who is unknowable today, will tomorrow become knowable and, the day after, will become totally known.
To deliberately criticise another individual may cause an indelible stain on the critic.
Let us serve the world soulfully. The pay we will receive for our service will be in the currency of gratitude, God’s gratitude, God the only gratitude.
Meditation simplifies our outer life and energizes our inner life. Meditation gives us a natural and spontaneous life, a life that becomes so natural and spontaneous that we cannot breathe without being conscious of our own divinity.
Meditate Silently. You will be able to create a totally new life for yourself.
True happiness Is not a mental hallucination. True happiness Is not a complacent feeling. True happiness Is the spontaneous feeling of joy That comes from knowing 132 You are doing the right thing 133 And leading a divine life.
The way to become happy Is to think And to feel That the very best is yet to come.
O kindle the fire of happiness ! Therein I shall see The door of friendliness, The room of greatness And the palace of godness. I shall see, I shall see.
Of all the gifts You have offered to God, Your happiness-gift He treasures most.
Enthusiasm Rules his inner world. Determination Rules his outer world. Therefore Happiness has become His real name.
Once you have established Your inner contact With your inner Pilot, Your life’s transformation-victory Will not remain a far cry.
Before the final curtain goes down On my life, I shall say to my Mother-Earth, “My gratitude-heart is all for you, All for you.”
No religion is absolutely perfect. Yet not only do we fight for religion, but also are we often willing to sacrifice our lives for it. And what we hopelessly fail to do is to live it. A true religion is that which has no caste, no creed, no colour. It is but an all-uniting and all-pervading embrace.
God does not care If I am bad or good- He wants my love, Not my sainthood.
Is not falling down. Failure Is desiring to live Where I have fallen.
