The fool who repeats again and again: I am bound, I am bound, remains in bondage. He who repeats day and night: I am a sinner, I am a sinner, becomes a sinner indeed.

More quotes by Ramakrishna
The waves belong to the water. Does the water belong to the waves?
Ramakrishna
All religions are true. God can be reached by different religions. Many rivers flow by many ways but they fall into the sea. They all are one.
Ramakrishna
Unalloyed love of God is the essential thing. All else is unreal.
Ramakrishna
The magnetic needle always points to the north, and hence it is that sailing vessel does not lose her direction. So long as the heart of man is directed towards God, he cannot be lost in the ocean of worldliness.
Ramakrishna
If you meditate on your ideal, you will acquire its nature. If you think of God day and night, you will acquire the nature of God.
Ramakrishna
The sun can give heat and light to the whole world, but he cannot do so when the clouds shut out his rays. Similarly as long as egotism veils the heart, God cannot shine upon it.
Ramakrishna
As the snake is separate from its slough, even so is the Spirit separate from the body.
Ramakrishna
Only two kinds of people can attain self-knowledge: those who are not encumbered at all with learning, that is to say, whose minds are not over-crowded with thoughts borrowed from others and those who, after studying all the scriptures and sciences, have come to realise that they know nothing.
Ramakrishna
The supreme purpose and goal for human life... is to cultivate love.
Ramakrishna
Have love for everyone, no one is other than you.
Ramakrishna
It's enough to have faith in one aspect of God. But never get into your head that your faith alone is true and every other is false.
Ramakrishna
Forgiveness is the true nature of the ascetic.
Ramakrishna
As a toy fruit or a toy elephant reminds one of the real fruit and the living animal, so do the images that are worshipped remind one of the God who is formless and eternal.
Ramakrishna
Bondage and Liberation are of the mind alone.
Ramakrishna
Meditate upon the Knowledge and Bliss Eternal , and you will also have bliss. The Bliss indeed is eternal, only it is covered and obscured by ignorance. The less your attachment is towards the senses, the more will be your love towards God .
Ramakrishna
Do yourself what you wish others to do.
Ramakrishna
The world is impermanent. [All things change. Knowing this helps you see the end of any difficulty and thereby have hope.]
Ramakrishna
One cannot be spiritual as long as one has shame, hatred, or fear.
Ramakrishna
If you first fortify yourself with the true knowledge of the Universal Self, and then live in the midst of wealth and worldliness, surely they will in no way affect you.
Ramakrishna
The breeze of grace is always blowing set your sail to catch that breeze.
Ramakrishna
