More quotes by Radhanath Swami
If we seek the essence of every situation, if we seek to connect to God within our hearts, then we will find an opportunity there, to grow internally in wisdom in every trial we face.
Radhanath Swami
Application of humility is service.
Radhanath Swami
Preaching means to awaken the real inclination to serve God.
Radhanath Swami
Faith is the act of seeing beyond the religion of possibility of the senses, the mind and the intelligence.
Radhanath Swami
When you take a position, you have to accept responsibilities.
Radhanath Swami
Pure love of God is our nature, but we are so much diverted, so much distracted by the externals that we've forgotten that it's our essence.
Radhanath Swami
If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die, rather it manifests in the form of compassion. That is universal love. It is not just a sentiment. It cannot be manifested merely by a shift in mental disposition. It can only come from inner cleaning, an inner awakening.
Radhanath Swami
When love is pure, it has the power to conquer. Lover and beloved conquer each other by their affection. The source, the essence, the fullest manifestation of love's conquering power is the love of the soul for the supreme soul, or God.
Radhanath Swami
Whereas religious prayers sing of peace and harmony, religion has divided human beings through an atrocious history of enmity and bloodshed. Yet, behind the veil of superficiality and hypocrisy, I always believed in the inherent beauty of God that lies at the essence of all true spiritual paths.
Radhanath Swami
Definition of love: capacity to forgive endlessly.
Radhanath Swami
Moon is like Soul. Clouds are like all the situations in our life, relationships, youth, etc. Wind is like the Time. Just like the wind moves the clouds, Time moves all the situations in our life. But the soul is always the same and not on the temporary situations. One who focuses on soul is a moon-like person.
Radhanath Swami
Spirituality is based on development of character and philosophy.
Radhanath Swami
Taking responsibility of others means to be selfless. We have to put aside our own well being and desires as secondary and to think primarily of what is best for the persons who are looking up to us.
Radhanath Swami
Service is life. No service means, spiritually no life.
Radhanath Swami
Essence of humility is unity.
Radhanath Swami
Greatness is in not what you do but how you are an instrument in the hands of God.
Radhanath Swami
I took an interest in the Civil Rights Movement. I listened to Martin Luther King. The Vietnam War was raging. When I was 18, I was eligible for the draft, but when I went to be tested, I didn't qualify.
Radhanath Swami
Pure devotional service fries the seeds of material inclinations in our heart.
Radhanath Swami
Real religion is not about being a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim. Real religion is about loving God, & dedicating ones life to be an instrument of Gods compassion, kindness towards other living beings.
Radhanath Swami
Whoever we are, wherever we are, however we are, whatever our condition is, there is no impediment to attaining the perfection of life-if we are humble & sincere.
