Paramahansa Yogananda
Be kind to others, so that you may learn the secret art of being kind to yourself.
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
Through the portals of silence the healing sun of wisdom and peace will shine upon you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Fearlessness means faith in God: faith in his protection, His justice, His wisdom, His mercy, His love, and His Omnipresence... To be fit for Self-realization man must be fearless.
Paramahansa Yogananda
If God calls me tomorrow I will go without a moment's turning back.

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
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
As you find your soul-reservoir of peace, less and less controversy will be able to afflict your life.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Build your inner environment. Practice Silence! I remember the wonderful discipline of the Great Ones. When we used to talk and chatter, they would say: Go back into your inner castle. It was very hard to comprehend then, but now I understand the way of peace
Paramahansa Yogananda
Carrying a thought with dynamic will power means holding it until that thought pattern develops dynamic force. When a thought is made dynamic by will force, it can manifest according to the mental blueprint you have created.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The wave is the same as the ocean, though it is not the whole ocean. So each wave of creation is a part of the eternal Ocean of Spirit. The Ocean can exist without the waves, but the waves cannot exist without the Ocean.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Change yourself and you have done your part in changing the world
Paramahansa Yogananda
Music that is saturated with soul force is the real universal music, understandable by all hearts.
Paramahansa Yogananda
If circumstances are bad and you have to bear them, do not make them a part of yourself.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Ever-new Joy is God. He is inexhaustible as you continue your meditations during the years, He will beguile you with an infinite ingenuity. Devotees like yourself who have found the way to God never dream of exchanging Him for any other happiness He is seductive beyond thought of competition.
