Image
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
Image
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
Image
Nothing is impossible unless you think it is.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Happiness blooms naturally in the hearts of those who are inwardly free. It flows spontaneously, like a mountain spring after April showers, in minds that are contented with simple living.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Sincerity is a soul quality that God has given to every human being, but not all express it.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Behold thine immortal Self resurrected with Christ in the light of illumination, present in every soul, every flower, every atom!
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
If religion means primarily God-consciousness, or the realization of God both within and without, and secondarily a body of beliefs, tenets and dogmas, then, strictly speaking, there is but one religion in the world, for there is but one God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
The body is only a garment. How many times you have changed your clothing in this life, yet because of this you would not say that you have changed. Similarly, when you give up this bodily dress at death you do not change. You are just the same, an immortal soul, a child of God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
I don't want people to think that they can attain realization simply by listening to others or by reading books. They must practice what they read and hear.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
You must not let your life run in the ordinary way do something that nobody else has done, something that will dazzle the world. Show that God's creative principle works in you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Faithfulness in the performance of small duties gives us strength to adhere to difficult determinations that life will someday force us to make.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
What you are is much greater than anything or anyone else you have ever yearned for. God is manifest in you in a way that He is not manifest in any other human being. Your face is unlike anyone else's, your soul is unlike anyone else's, you are sufficient unto yourself for within your soul lies the greatest treasure of all - God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
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
Image
The greatest romance is with the Infinite. You have no idea how beautiful life can be. When you suddenly find God everywhere, when He comes and talks to you and guides you, the romance of divine love has begun.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
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.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Find god - he isn't hiding from you, you're hiding from him.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
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
Image
It is spiritual poverty, not material lack, that lies at the core of all human suffering.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Affirm divine calmness and peace, and send out only thoughts of love and goodwill if you want to live in peace and harmony. Never get angry, for anger poisons your system.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
A saint is a sinner who never gave up.
