More quotes by Sivananda
Sow love, reap peace. Sow meditation, reap wisdom.
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
There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now. Time will reveal it. Be patient.

Cultivate peace first in the garden of your heart by removing the weeds of lust, hatred, greed, selfishness, and jealousy. Then only you can manifest it externally. Then only, those who come in contact with you, will be benefited by your vibrations of peace and harmony.

Sivananda
Pain, sorrow, ignorance are all illusory they cannot live. Bliss, joy, knowledge are true they cannot die.

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
Forget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.

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
Desire nothing, give up all desires and be happy.
Sivananda
You are already free. You only have to know and realize this truth.
