More quotes by Sri Chinmoy
First of all, let us try to know what love is. If love means to possess someone or something, then that is not real love, not pure love. If loves means to give oneself, to become one with everything and everyone, then that is real love. Real love is total oneness with the object loved and with the Possessor of love.
Sri Chinmoy
I do not compete with anybody else I compete only with myself. You saw my capacity a few minutes ago. Now I am competing with myself. When I do weightlifting, my body is my world. If I can improve myself, if I can go beyond my previous achievements, then that is my goal. My own previous record is always what I am competing with.
Sri Chinmoy
My heart needs only one thing. It needs to be guided Along the age-old path Of life-blossoming self-awareness.
Sri Chinmoy
Real joy means immediate expansion. If we experience pure joy, immediately our heart expands. We feel that we are flying in the divine freedom-sky. The entire length and breadth of the world becomes ours, not for us to rule over, but as an expansion of our consciousness. We become reality and vastness.
Sri Chinmoy
Character is blazing sunshine in the soul's abode, the body.
Sri Chinmoy
Your heart will be shattered by sorrow If you force it to live In tomorrow's ephemeral imagination-world Instead of in today's eternal Reality-Now.
Sri Chinmoy
Our human nature likes more to destroy than to build, more to cry than to smile, and more to correct the world than to love and embrace the world.
Sri Chinmoy
Lack of harmony comes when I feel that I know how to do something better than you. Lack of harmony is the song and dance of superiority. Because everybody feels superior, disharmony at every moment is entering into our lives.
Sri Chinmoy
If we can invoke Peace and then offer it to somebody else, we will see how Peace expands from one to two persons, and gradually to the world at large.
Sri Chinmoy
We are all God's children. But world-peace-dreamers, world-peace-lovers and world-peace-servers are undoubtedly God's choicest children.
Sri Chinmoy
I take the greatest lesson from compassion - it takes away all the conceit out of my life.
Sri Chinmoy
God loves only one philosophy, And that is the Do-it-here-now philosophy.
Sri Chinmoy
When we meditate we expand, spreading our wings like a bird, trying to enter consciously into Infinity, Eternity and Immortality, welcoming them into our aspiring consciousness. We see, feel and grow into the entire universe of Light-Delight.
Sri Chinmoy
You do not have to be The fastest starter. Just be a starter! You will, without fail, Reach your destination-sun.
Sri Chinmoy
Oneness is the perfect expansion Of our inner reality. Let our hearts oneness only increase To make us feel That we belong to a universal world ? family, And this world ? family Is a fulfilled Dream of God.
Sri Chinmoy
There is nothing more powerful than peace.
Sri Chinmoy
The waves of hatred-night can easily be dissolved in the sea of oneness-love.
Sri Chinmoy
Real meditation we get from within or from a spiritual Master. We can never get it from books. From books we can get inspiration or an inner approach to the fulfilment of our outer life. But in order to have true meditation we have to go deep within or follow the guidance of a spiritual Master.
Sri Chinmoy
The human mind is utterly stupid when it carries, quite willingly, the heavy burden of resentment.
Sri Chinmoy
A gratitude-heart Is to discover on earth A Heaven-delivered rose
