Sri Chinmoy quotes about
When your heart's gratitude comes to the fore, when you become all gratitude, this gratitude is like a flow, a flow of consciousness. When your consciousness is flowing, feel that this gratitude-flow is like a river that is watering the root of the tree and the tree itself. It is always through gratitude that your consciousness-river will grow and water the perfection-tree inside you.
Gratitude is not a mere word; it is not a mere concept. It is the living breath of your real existence on earth.
Determination can change your mind. Determination can change your heart. Determination can change your life altogether.
Cry within. Meditate within. Dive within. Your inner achievements will far outweigh your outer imperfections.
Love the world With your heart's dreams. Serve the world With your life's promises.
A sincere seeker knows what his goal is: the highest Truth. He will not delay his journey. In spiritual life, we aspire for the highest Truth, for God, nothing else.
People who plead with you for favours May eventually prove to be great flatterers. Your friends are only those Who all the time cheerfully support Your heart's aspiration-flames.
I did not come into the world to prove anything. I came into the world to love everyone and everything.
When I meditate, I feel I am vast, very vast.
I meditate So that I can inundate My entire being With the omnipotent Power of peace.
A spiritually established life is not an easy task. But a materially satisfied life is an impossible task.
The meditation that gives you immediate joy or continuous joy is the best meditation for you. Everyone will not have the same meditation. Your meditation will not suit me, my meditation will not suit you. You like a certain food, I don't like it. You are right in your own way I am right in my own way. But once you know what your best meditation is, please stick to it.
The very nature of kindness is to spread. If you are kind to others, today they will be kind to you, and tomorrow to somebody else.
I compete only with myself, and I try to become a better human being. This is my goal.
