Quote

When we meditate, what we actually do is enter into a vacant, calm, still, silent mind. We go deep within and approach our true existence, which is our soul. When we live in the soul, we feel that we are actually meditating spontaneously

Be kind, be all sympathy, for each and every human being is forced to fight against himself.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
A simple man will have only what he needs, and he will know the difference between what he needs and what he wants. We feel that whatever we want, we desperately need. But before we possess the world, to our wide surprise we see that the world has already possessed us.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Each human being can at once be a fighter and forgiver. When self-doubt tortures him, he most play the role of a fighter. And when his own ignorance humiliates him, he must play the role of a forgiver.

Judge nothing, you will be happy. Forgive everything, you will be happier. Love everything, you will be happiest.

Image
Hope abides therefore I abide. Countless frustrations have not cowed me. I am still alive, vibrant with life. The black cloud will disappear, The morning sun will appear once again In all its supernal glory.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
What is love? From the spiritual and inner point of view, love is self-expansion. Human love binds and is bound. Divine Love expands, enlarges itself.

If you want to simplify your life, meditation is the answer. If you want to fulfil your life, meditation is the answer. If you want to have joy and offer joy to the world at large, then meditation is the only answer.
Sri Chinmoy

Never give up hope! Hope ultimately succeeds.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
There comes a time in the seeker's life when he discovers that he is at once the lover and the beloved. The aspiring soul which he embodies is the lover in him. And the transcendental Self which he reveals from within is his Beloved.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
Ignorance is an enemy, even to its owner. Knowledge is a friend, even to its hater. Ignorance hates knowledge because it is too pure. Knowledge fears ignorance because it is too sure.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Hope is at once both simple and profound. It is hope that binds Heaven and earth. Hope is the bridge between Heaven and earth.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Our mind thinks of death. Our heart thinks of life. Our soul thinks of Immortality.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
A sincere seeker knows what his goal is: the highest Truth. He will not delay his journey. In spiritual life, we aspire for the highest Truth, for God, nothing else.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
Listen to the inner light It will guide you. Listen to the inner Peace It will feed you. Listen to the inner Love It will transform you, It will divinise you, It will immortalise you.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Let us not try to understand music with our mind. Let us not even try to feel it with our heart. Let us simply and spontaneously allow the music-bird to fly in our heart-sky. While flying, it will unconditionally reveal to us what it has and what it is. What it has, is Immortality's message. What it is, is Eternity's passage.

This world of ours has everything except one thing: peace. Everybody wants and needs peace, whether he be a child or an octogenarian.
