More quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
Within us lies the peace, the beauty, the glory of our being. There is an ocean of all that. We cannot seek it outside, we have to go within.
Nirmala Srivastava
We have to get awakened to the fact that in recent decades, great destruction has been caused to our moral values as a result of our children, parents and families, getting influenced by the chaotic conditions of modern times.
Nirmala Srivastava
You must forgive everyone. Now many would say that We cannot forgive, it's very difficult. But it's a myth whether you forgive or don't forgive. What do you do? You don't do anything. But when you don't forgive, then you are playing into wrong hands. That means you are torturing yourself, while those who have troubled you are quite happy.
Nirmala Srivastava
What you have to get is a ocean of love within your heart and to seek that in others also.
Nirmala Srivastava
Only after Self-Realisation and only then, is there a direct experience of the Spirit. It then manifests its powers in the human personality, and it's light enlightens the consciousness into a new awareness. The Divine intelligence of the Spirit radiates on all sides.
Nirmala Srivastava
The enjoyment of life is only possible if we could get connected to the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
The mind creates all the problems for an individual or for the collective. One has to go beyond the mind into thoughtless awareness, where there is peace.
Nirmala Srivastava
When you are the Spirit, you are like a brilliant diamond, which is giving light by itself.
Nirmala Srivastava
So spirituality itself should be self satisfying. If you are spiritually endowed, then you are self satisfied. And this self satisfaction within you will lead you to that ocean of joy about which I've been telling you and all the scriptures have described.
Nirmala Srivastava
Now you must practice to see something without allowing any thought to rise. Then you start sucking through your Spirit the beauty, the glory, the fragrance of a flower.
Nirmala Srivastava
Attention has to be concentrated upon your Spirit. Then you become the best instrument, your attention very powerful.
Nirmala Srivastava
Ego and conditionings are created by mind, which is a myth.
Nirmala Srivastava
As scientists you must keep your minds open. There is no use having blind faith in Me, in Sahaja Yoga, in anything because blindness will never give you reality. But you should be open like scientists are and whatever hypothesis I am putting before you, you have to feel it on your central nervous system.
Nirmala Srivastava
Intellect is not wisdom one must understand. They're two things - wisdom and intellect.
Nirmala Srivastava
Fanaticism is such a blind stuff that it can never give you any idea as to what is reality. Because whatever you believe into, you build up your own ideas and everything onto it and it's like a fake palace built on a fake idea. And then you go on fighting. If God is one, if His love is one, then how can people who believe in God fight?
Nirmala Srivastava
Freedom is when you really get your own powers which are within you.
Nirmala Srivastava
The fun is created only through innocence and innocence is the only way you can really emit also the fun. Imagine this world without any fun, what would happen?
Nirmala Srivastava
Forgiveness is the greatest weapon that God has given us.
Nirmala Srivastava
Now to understand the significance of chastity within us, we have to know that chastity is the foundation of all dharmas. Unless and until you have sense of chastity you cannot have dharma.
Nirmala Srivastava
What do you have to surrender? A drop has to dissolve into the ocean to become the ocean. And a drop cannot be greater than the ocean, can it? So what is the surrendering? It is the surrendering of our conditioning, of our ego and the artificial barriers we have built around us.
