Image
How you all will change the work after I am gone. If I came back a hundred years from now, I just wonder if I would even recognize it.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
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
Image
You do not have to struggle to reach God, but you do have to struggle to tear away the self-created veil that hides him from you
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Nothing is impossible unless you think it is.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Spirit vibrated into matter hence, both Spirit and matter exist. Matter, however, does not exist in the way that it appears to us. It exists as we see it owing to the delusive force of maya, which makes the indivisible Spirit seem finite and divisible to all appearances. Matter has existence in the same delusive way as does a mirage in the desert.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
I am a spark from the Infinite. I am not flesh and bones. I am light.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
When you came into this world you cried, whereas everyone else rejoiced. During your lifetime, work and serve in such a way that when it is time for you to leave this world, you will smile at parting while the world cries for you. Hold this thought and you will always remember to consider others above yourself.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
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
Image
If circumstances are bad and you have to bear them, do not make them a part of yourself.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
If you have a strong mind and plant in it a firm resolve, you can change your destiny.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Thought is the primary energy and vibration that emanated from God and is thus the creator of life, electrons, atoms, and all forms of energy.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
It is foolish to be afraid of death. Just think. No more repaired tires on the body vehicle, no more patchwork living.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
The reality of my life cannot die for I am indestructible consciousness.
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
Divisions are imaginary lines drawn by small minds.
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
Love is the Song of the Soul singing to God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Coercion or compulsion never brings about growth. It is freedom that accelerates evolution.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
Just as oil is present in every part of the olive, so love permeates every part of creation.
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.
