More quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
Calmness is the living breath of God's immortality in you.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Feel the love of God then in every person you will see the face of the Father, the light of love which is in all. You will find a magic, living relationship uniting the trees, the sky, the stars, all people, and all living things and you will feel a oneness with them. This is the code of divine love.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Seek spiritual riches within. What you are is much greater than anyone or anything else you have ever yearned for.
Paramahansa Yogananda
It is spiritual poverty, not material lack, that lies at the core of all human suffering.
Paramahansa Yogananda
You cannot make steel until you have made the iron white-hot in fire. It is not meant for harm. Trouble and disease have a lesson for us. Our painful experiences are not meant to destroy us, but to burn out our dross, to hurry us back Home. No one is more anxious for our release than God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Great healers, people of divine realization, do not cure by chance but by exact knowledge.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Coercion or compulsion never brings about growth. It is freedom that accelerates evolution.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Just as oil is present in every part of the olive, so love permeates every part of creation.
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
Never neglect what you can do for yourself in the form of another.
Paramahansa Yogananda
If you permit your thoughts to dwell on evil you yourself will become ugly. Look only for the good in everything so you absorb the quality of beauty.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Humans become angels on earth, not in heaven.
Paramahansa Yogananda
God is simple, everything else is complex
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
Remain calm, serene, always in command of yourself. You will then find out how easy it is to get along.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Change yourself and you have done your part in changing the world
Paramahansa Yogananda
I relax and cast aside all mental burdens, allowing God to express through me His perfect love, peace, and wisdom.
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
Do not think of yourself as the body, but as the joyous consciousness and immortal life behind it.
Paramahansa Yogananda
In meditation...the power of God begins to reflect in the clear waters of your consciousness.
Paramahansa Yogananda
