More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
Truths are more than imagination they are real. Yet their origin is a thought in the mind of God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
I am calmly active, actively calm. I am the prince of peace sitting on a throne of poise, directing the kingdom of my activity.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The seeker of God is the real lover of vidya, unchangeable truth all else is avidya, relative knowledge.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Extend the boundaries of the glowing kingdom of your love, gradually including your family, your neighbors, your community, your country, all countries -- all living sentient creatures.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Mind is the creator of everything. You should therefore guide it to create only good. If you cling to a certain thought with dynamic will power, it finally assumes a tangible outward form. When you are able to employ your will always for constructive purposes, you become the controller of your destiny.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Spirit vibrated into matter hence, both Spirit and matter exist. Matter, however, does not exist in the way that it appears to us. It exists as we see it owing to the delusive force of maya, which makes the indivisible Spirit seem finite and divisible to all appearances. Matter has existence in the same delusive way as does a mirage in the desert.
Paramahansa Yogananda
As I radiate love and goodwill to others, I will open the channel for God's love to come to me.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Whatever you want others to be, first be that yourself. Then, you will find others responding in like manner to you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
You are walking on the earth as in a dream. Our world is a dream within a dream you must realize that to find God is the only goal, the only purpose, for which you are here. For Him alone you exist. Him you must find.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Forget the past. The vanished lives of all men are dark with many shames. Human conduct is ever unreliable until man is anchored in the Divine. Everything in future will improve if you are making a spiritual effort now.
Paramahansa Yogananda
All Nature will commune with you when you are in tune with God. Realization of this truth will make you a master of your destiny.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The reality of my life cannot die for I am indestructible consciousness.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Thought is the primary energy and vibration that emanated from God and is thus the creator of life, electrons, atoms, and all forms of energy.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The spine is the highway to the Infinite. Your own body is the temple of God. It is within your own self that God must be realized.
Paramahansa Yogananda
An artist doesn't really create anything - he just rearranges what is already there.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Change your life by changing your thoughts.
Paramahansa Yogananda
In the state of love, no matter what you do, it's going to be good.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Be honest with yourself. The world is not honest with you. The world loves hypocrisy. When you are honest with yourself you find the road to inner peace.
Paramahansa Yogananda
If you want to be sad, no one in the world can make you happy. But if you make up your mind to be happy, no one and nothing on earth can take that happiness from you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
What you lose in the world will not be a loss to your soul.
