More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
The soul loves to meditate, for in contact with the Spirit lies its greatest joy. If, then you experience mental resistance during meditation, remember that reluctance to meditate comes from the ego it doesn't belong to the soul.
Paramahansa Yogananda
If you open the door to the magnetic power of friendship, souls of like vibrations will be attracted to you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Happiness lies in making others happy, in forsaking self-interest to bring joy to others.
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
Brotherhood is an ideal better understood by example than precept!
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
Change your life by changing your thoughts.
Paramahansa Yogananda
He is the wisest who seeks God. He is the most successful who has found God.
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
By the practice of meditation, you will find that you are carrying within your heart a portable paradise.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The sun shines equally on diamond and charcoal, but the former has developed qualities that enable it to reflect the sunlight brilliantly, while the latter is unable to reflect the sunlight. Emulate the diamond in your dealings with people. Brightly reflect the light of God's love.
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
Love is the Song of the Soul singing to God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The greatest romance is with the Infinite.
Paramahansa Yogananda
A wish is a desire without energy
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
Nothing is impossible unless you think it is.
