More quotes by Sivananda
Desire nothing, give up all desires and be happy.
Sivananda
Modern civilisation is complicated and artificial. Simple folk live in a world of love and peace. Let no one hate another or harm another.
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
You can have calmness of mind at all times by the practice of yoga. You can have restful sleep. You can have increased energy, vigour, vitality, longevity, and a high standard of health. You can turn out efficient work within a short space of time. You can have success in every walk of life.
Sivananda
Crave for a thing, you will get it. Renounce the craving, the object will follow you by itself.
Sivananda
If you focus the rays of the sun through a lens, they can burn cotton or a piece of paper but, the scattered rays cannot do this act. If you collect the dissipated rays of the mind and focus them at a point, you will have wonderful concentration.
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
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
Individual Peace paves the way for world peace. The attainment of inner calm is the greatest work you can do for humanity.
Sivananda
You are already free. You only have to know and realize this truth.
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
Meditation is the royal road to the attainment of freedom, a mysterious ladder that reaches from earth to heaven, darkness to light, mortality to Immortality.
Sivananda
An evil man is a saint of the future. See good in everything. Destroy the evil-finding quality. Develop the good-finding quality. Rise above good and evil.
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
Intuition transcends reason, but does not contradict it
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
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
Be humble as the blade of grass that is being trodden underneath the feet. The little ant tastes joyously the sweetness of honey and sugar. The mighty elephant trembles in pain under the agony of sharp goad
Sivananda
There is some truth in everything. Views and opinions are different aspects. Do not quarrel with others.
Sivananda
A purified mind can grasp anything. It can dive deep into the subtlest subject and understand even transcendental things.
