Paramahansa Yogananda
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

Paramahansa Yogananda
One cannot tell when he is going to be healed, so do not try to set an exact time limit. Faith, not time, will determine when the cure will be effected.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Forget your dream-born mortal weakness. Wake up and know that you and God are one.
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
It is spiritual poverty, not material lack, that lies at the core of all human suffering.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Sing songs that none have sung, think thoughts that ne'er in the brain have rung, Walk in paths that none have trod, weep tears as none have shed for God, Give peace to all to whom none other gave, Claim him your own who's everywhere disclaimed. Love all with love that none have felt and Brave the battle of life with strength unchained.
Paramahansa Yogananda
