More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
When you yearn for God with intensity, He will come to you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Every morning I offer my body, my mind and any ability that I posses, to be used by Thee, O infinite creator, in whatever way Thou dost choose to express Thyself through me. I know that all work is Thy work, and that no task is too difficult or too menial when offered to Thee in loving service.
Paramahansa Yogananda
As water by cooling and condensation becomes ice, so thought by condensation assumes physical form. Everything in the universe is thought in material form.
Paramahansa Yogananda
What you lose in the world will not be a loss to your soul.
Paramahansa Yogananda
It doesn't matter if a cave has been in darkness for 10,000 years or half an hour, once you light a match it is illuminated.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Death is not as terrible as you think. It comes to you as a healer. Sleep is nothing but a counterfeit death. What happens in death we can picture in sleep. All our sufferings vanish in sleep. When death comes, all our mortal tortures cease they cannot go beyond the portals of death.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Seek spiritual riches within. What you are is much greater than anyone or anything else you have ever yearned for.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Self-realization may be and sometimes is attained even by people who are struggling with sick and otherwise imperfect bodies but it cannot be attained unless one can concentrate and meditate uninterruptedly upon God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Births and deaths are inevitable for man only during the state of ignorance in which he thinks he is the body and cannot exist without it. Only the man who will not seek the awakening of wisdom must suffer the nightmares and delusive dreams of births and deaths and the fanciful miseries and limitations attending them. (gt)
Paramahansa Yogananda
Have the unflinching determination to move on your path unhampered by limiting thoughts of past errors.
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
Play your part in life, but never forget it is only a role.
Paramahansa Yogananda
People are so skillful in their ignorance!
Paramahansa Yogananda
Nothing may truly be said to be a miracle except in the profound sense that everything is a miracle.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Self-realization is the knowing in all parts of body, mind, and soul that you are now in possession of the kingdom of God that you do not have to pray that it come to you that God’s omnipresence is your omnipresence and that all that you need to do is improve your knowing.
Paramahansa Yogananda
When you exercise your will power you release the power of life energy - not when you merely wish passively to be able to obtain an objective.
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
God made us angels of energy, encased in solids - currents of life dazzling through a material bulb of flesh.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Through Self-realization man becomes aware of true values as to his place in the divine plan and his relation to the past, present, and future of mankind.
Paramahansa Yogananda
To me there is no difference between one person and another I behold all as soul-reflection s of the one God. I can't think of anyone as a stranger, for I know that we are all part of the One Spirit.
