More quotes by Nilakanta Sri Ram
He is the wise man who has by perfect living gained the instinct of rightness by which he guides himself, whether in thought or action, who has found that centre of balance which is always over his point of contact with circumstances. He is the man whom Nature pours the riches of all her instincts.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
The state of love is the state of grace. The development of that state and the unlocking of its mysteries brings one to the condition where there is no separation between oneself and others
Nilakanta Sri Ram
What man really seeks is not perfection which is in the future, but fulfillment which is ever in the present.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
What each one of us fundamentally needs is that inner peace which is to be discovered solely within ourselves, which no-one else can give, which the world with all its resources, can never supply.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
Ideal Love, stepped down to the level of the practical, day-to-day life, must mean the service of each to all within his or her sphere, a delicate consideration of others, a control that gives rise to peace, and cessation from every thought of cruelty and lust.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
What keeps us playing our parts and going round and round the three lower worlds is not a Divine dictate, but ourselves, our own will-to-live, which comes from within ourselves.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
We have yet to discover the true incentive, the inner Will which will have an over-mastering effect upon our lives, and yet be present in every circumstance and incident.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
The will is a product of integrity, not a child of contradictions.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
No individual can ultimately fail. The Divinity which descends into humanity is bound to re-gain its original state.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
There is no wisdom without love.
Nilakanta Sri Ram
