More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
When you came into this world you cried, whereas everyone else rejoiced. During your lifetime, work and serve in such a way that when it is time for you to leave this world, you will smile at parting while the world cries for you. Hold this thought and you will always remember to consider others above yourself.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The man of Self-realization knows a bliss that cannot be compared to anything in this world. His joy is independent of any object or sensory experience. It is an incomparable happiness that cannot be described in words. Such joy is known as sattvik-ananda.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Whatever you want others to be, first be that yourself. Then, you will find others responding in like manner to you.

What you are is much greater than anything or anyone else you have ever yearned for. God is manifest in you in a way that He is not manifest in any other human being. Your face is unlike anyone else's, your soul is unlike anyone else's, you are sufficient unto yourself for within your soul lies the greatest treasure of all - God.

Paramahansa Yogananda
How you all will change the work after I am gone. If I came back a hundred years from now, I just wonder if I would even recognize it.
Paramahansa Yogananda
To love those that love you is easy. To love those that love you not is not so simple. If you want to change anyone, set a better example. Show more kindness, more understanding, more love. That has a sure effect. To those who are not kind, show kindness. To those who are mean, show bigness of heart.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Behold thine immortal Self resurrected with Christ in the light of illumination, present in every soul, every flower, every atom!

God is simple, everything else is complex
Paramahansa Yogananda
If you permit your thoughts to dwell on evil you yourself will become ugly. Look only for the good in everything so you absorb the quality of beauty.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Have the unflinching determination to move on your path unhampered by limiting thoughts of past errors.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Most of the world is like a mental hospital. Some persons are sick with jealousy, others with anger, hatred, passion. They are victims of their habits and emotions. But you can make your home a place of peace.
Paramahansa Yogananda
An artist doesn't really create anything - he just rearranges what is already there.
