Paramahansa Yogananda
Seek spiritual riches within. What you are is much greater than anyone or anything else you have ever yearned for.
Paramahansa Yogananda
I relax and cast aside all mental burdens, allowing God to express through me His perfect love, peace, and wisdom.
Paramahansa Yogananda
It is a great mistake to regard a certain object as pleasurable in itself and to store the idea of it in the mind in hope of fulfilling a want by its actual presence in the future. If objects were pleasurable in themselves, then the same dress or food would always please everyone, which is not the case.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Loyalty is the first law of God.
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
Nothing may truly be said to be a miracle except in the profound sense that everything is a miracle.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Wise guidance never violates people's Free Will. A superior who demands obedience of his subordinates should show respect for their capacity to understand, and also for their Innate Right to their own Free Will.
Paramahansa Yogananda
In your heart must well that sympathy which soothes away all pains from the hearts of others.
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
Forget your dream-born mortal weakness. Wake up and know that you and God are one.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The entire universe is God's cosmic motion picture, and that individuals are merely actors in the divine play who change roles through reincarnation mankind's deep suffering is rooted in identifying too closely with one's current role, rather than with the movie's director, or God.
