Sivananda
Meditation is painful in the beginning but it bestows immortal Bliss and supreme joy in the end.

Sivananda
A wise person laughs and smiles through the eyes. . . . The smile and laughter through the eyes influence people tremendously. No energy leaks if you smile through the eyes.
Sivananda

Sivananda
Let each man take the path according to his capacity, understanding and temperament. His true guru will meet him along that path.
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
Do not store in your brain useless information. Learn to unmind the mind. Unlearn whatever has been of no use to you. Then only can you fill your mind with divine thoughts.
