In love you don't doubt, no question. Only when you think you doubt, but when you love you don't doubt, you just love because you enjoy love. And that's why love is joy and joy is love.

More quotes by 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.
Nirmala Srivastava
The light of the spirit has to come into your attention.
Nirmala Srivastava
The ascent is the aim of your life and to perfect it is your job.
Nirmala Srivastava
Your own attention is important, not the attention of others or your attention on others.
Nirmala Srivastava
Saintly people not only are responsible for themselves, but for everyone.
Nirmala Srivastava
Ego and conditionings are created by mind, which is a myth.
Nirmala Srivastava

Ego is the greatest hurdle for your ascent. You see that ego is at a place where you have to just cross to go to Sahasrara, and to break Sahasrara is very easy otherwise. But if there is ego, you are already lost in that ego.
Nirmala Srivastava
Bliss can only come through gratitude, only through enlarging your heart with gratitude. Bliss is the reward of gratitude - the gratitude which is not just wordly or just spoken lip service, but is from the heart - the gratitude of the heart.
Nirmala Srivastava
First of all, learn to laugh at yourself. That's the best way to enjoy yourself, you know, and not to spend much time in the mirror, that's another way.
Nirmala Srivastava
In emotions you should be bubbling with joy. Joy is your emotion. In action you should be thoughtless and in ascent you should be surrendered.
Nirmala Srivastava
Dharma gives you the balance. It gives you the establishment into proper behavior, proper understanding, proper living, but it doesn't give you the completion of your journey. It doesn't give you the satisfaction of reaching the destination and your personality is still incomplete. So one has to have the experience of the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
Once you are enlightened, you don't do wrong things. You don't take to wrong things. Then you start understanding all these prophets, all these great incarnations, you start understanding what they were. Then you understand that all these religions have come out of one Tree of Life, which is spirituality.
Nirmala Srivastava
If your body wants comfort, you try to make it learn to give up that. Try to make your body your slave and not you the slave of the body.
Nirmala Srivastava
The enjoyment of life is only possible if we could get connected to the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
If you have love, you can correct people without saying anything to them because love is a supreme intelligence.
Nirmala Srivastava
Politicians should be dedicated to the welfare of the people, but sometimes politics becomes like a game of chess, in which the sole aim is to stay on board as long as possible.
Nirmala Srivastava
If love is killed, joy is lost. You cannot have joy without love.
Nirmala Srivastava
