More quotes by Sivananda
Life is short. Time is fleeting. Realize the Self. Purity of the heart is the gateway to God. Aspire. Renounce. Meditate. Be good do good. Be kind be compassionate. Inquire, know Thyself.
Sivananda
Look within. Within you is the hidden God. Within you is the immortal soul. Within you is the inexhaustible spiritual treasure. Within you is the ocean of bliss. Look within for the happiness which you have sought in vain.
Sivananda
There is some truth in everything. Views and opinions are different aspects. Do not quarrel with others.
Sivananda
A desire arises in the mind. It is satisfied immediately another comes. In the interval which separates two desires a perfect calm reigns in the mind. It is at this moment freed from all thought, love or hate. Complete peace equally reigns between two mental waves.
Sivananda
Thinking of disease constantly will intensify it. Feel always 'I am healthily in body and mind'.
Sivananda
The glorious Vishnu is the sole refuge of mortals. He is Infinite Light, Love and Wisdom. He resides in the hearts of all beings. His Grace is invincible. He is in all. He is the Highest Truth. He is Infinite Bliss. He is the Protector. He is the Preserver. He is the Saviour.
Sivananda
Desire is poverty. Desire is the greatest impurity of the mind. Desire is the motive force for action. Desire in the mind is the real impurity. Even a spark of desire is a very great evil.
Sivananda
Rise above the deceptions and temptations of the mind. This is your duty. Learn to become wise. Desire nothing, give up all desires and be happy. The real spiritual progress of the meditator is measured by the extent to which they achieve inner tranquility and freedom from desire.
Sivananda
Man is a bridge between the two worlds - the visible and the invisible.
Sivananda
You should always keep your word. All the setbacks in life come only because you don't keep your word.
Sivananda
The human intellect has not been able to conceive of anything more noble and sublime in the history of the world than the teachings of the Upanishads.
Sivananda
Make others truly happy as you strive to make yourself happy. Speak a helpful word. Give a cheering smile. Do a kind act. Serve a little. Wipe the tears of one who is in distress. Render smooth a rough place in another's path. You will feel great joy.
Sivananda
Practice meditation regularly. Meditation leads to eternal bliss. Therefore meditate, meditate.
Sivananda
Be for ever a student. He and he alone is an old man who feels that he has learnt enough and has need for no more knowledge.
Sivananda
Man needs now no more degrees, but character, No more study, but wisdom.
Sivananda
A purified mind can grasp anything. It can dive deep into the subtlest subject and understand even transcendental things.
Sivananda
Common sense is the fundamental factor in all spiritual disciplines. No rule is an eternal rule. Rules change from place to place, time to time and from one condition to another condition.
Sivananda
Your thoughts should agree with your words, and the words should agree with your actions. In this world people think one thing, say another thing, and do something else. This is horrible. This is crookedness.
Sivananda
Patient and regular practice is the whole secret of spiritual realization. Do not be in a hurry in spiritual life. Do your utmost, and leave the rest to God.
Sivananda
A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth. The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water. Even so, life is but an endless series of little details, actions, speeches, and thoughts. And the consequences whether good or bad of even the least of them are far-reaching.
