More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
Success should be measured by the yardstick of happiness by your ability to remain in peaceful harmony with cosmic laws.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Divisions are imaginary lines drawn by small minds.
Paramahansa Yogananda
God is love. His plan for creation can only be rooted in love. Does not that simple thought, rather than erudite reasoning, offer solace to the human heart?
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
In the state of love, no matter what you do, it's going to be good.
Paramahansa Yogananda
One may have many teachers, but only one guru, who remains as one's guru even in many different lives, until the disciple reaches the final goal of emancipation in God. You must remember this, once that relationship is formed.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Change your life by changing your thoughts.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Loyalty is the first law of God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
As you find your soul-reservoir of peace, less and less controversy will be able to afflict your life.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Never do anything that taints your mind. Wrong actions cause negative or evil mental vibrations that are reflected in your whole appearance and personality. Engage in those actions and thoughts that nurture the good qualities you want to have.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Sing songs that none have sung, think thoughts that ne'er in the brain have rung, Walk in paths that none have trod, weep tears as none have shed for God, Give peace to all to whom none other gave, Claim him your own who's everywhere disclaimed. Love all with love that none have felt and Brave the battle of life with strength unchained.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Every tomorrow is determined by every today.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Truth is exact correspondence with reality.
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
In that power of self-control lies the seed of eternal freedom.
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
If you open the door to the magnetic power of friendship, souls of like vibrations will be attracted to you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
You naturally love those who are dear to you, and you must learn to give that kind of love to the whole world.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Do your best and then relax.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Have only love in your heart for others. The more you see the good in them, the more you will establish good in yourself.
