921 quote(s) | Page 14 / 37

W hen there are no desires, there are no sorrows. We must be able to love without expecting anything in return, or without expecting anything from anyone else. We must always be thinking that we are the servants of all.

quote 5427 | Amirthanandamayi

H e who is the same to friend and foe, and also in honour and dishonour, who is the same in cold and heat, pleasure and pain, who is wholly free from attachment; To whom praise and blame are equal, who is silent, content with every fortune, home-renouncing, steadfast in mind, and worships Me; that man is dear to me.

quote 5424 | The Thirrukkural

quote 5423 | The Bhagavat Gita

L ife is a pilgrimage. The wise man does not rest by the roadside inns; he marches direct to the illimitable domain of eternal bliss, his ultimate destination.

quote 5422 | Sivananda

A s with one gold various ornaments are made, having different forms and names, so one God is worshipped in different countries and ages, and has different forms and names. Though He may be worshipped variously, some loving to call him Father, others Mother, etc, yet it is one God that is being worshipped in all these various relations and modes.

quote 5421 | Ramakrishna

T ruth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.

quote 5420 | Vivekananda

T he common expression is ‘I love you.’ But instead of ‘I love you,’ it would be better to say, ‘I am love — I am the embodiment of pure love.’ Remove the I and you, and you will find that there is only love. It is as if love is imprisoned between the I and you. Remove the I and you, for they are unreal; they are self-imposed walls that don’t exist. The gulf between I and you is the ego. When the ego is removed the distance disappears and the I and you also disappear. They merge to become one — and that is love. You lend the I and you their reality. Withdraw your support and they will disappear. Then you will realise, not that ‘I love you,’ but that ‘I am that all-embracing love.’

quote 5419 | Amirthanandamayi

I f one allows no day to pass without some good being done, his conduct will be a stone to block up the passage to other births.

I n one word, this ideal is that you are Divine.

quote 5416 | Vivekananda

C rave for a thing, you will get it. Renounce the craving, the object will follow you by itself.

quote 5415 | Sivananda

T here is no end of craving. Hence contentment alone is the best way to happiness. Therefore, acquire contentment.

quote 5414 | Sivananda

T hose who remember me at the time of death will come to me. Do not doubt this. Whatever occupies the mind at the time of death determines the destination of the dying; always they will tend toward that state of being.

quote 5413 | The Bhagavat Gita

N o one is completely bad in this world. However bad someone is said to be, there will be something good in him. One of you could see the good in a murderer, a robber, and a prostitute. If there is goodness in us, we will also see it in others. Those are the kind of eyes we need.

quote 5412 | Amirthanandamayi

T he Vedanta recognizes no sin it only recognizes error. And the greatest error, says the Vedanta is to say that you are weak, that you are a sinner, a miserable creature, and that you have no power and you cannot do this and that.
