Quote

Meditation upon the unknown Thought He thought was real meditation. No, meditation is not and cannot be On any thought. Meditation is a conscious withdrawal From the thought-world. Meditation is the place Where Reality, Divinity and Immortality Can each claim their own Perennial existence-light.

Meditation is silence. Silence is God In His Infinity's Smile.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Meditation tells you only one thing: God is. Meditation reveals to you only one truth: yours is the vision of God.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Meditation simplifies our outer life and energizes our inner life. Meditation gives us a natural and spontaneous life, a life that becomes so natural and spontaneous that we cannot breathe without being conscious of our own divinity.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Not to give up under any circumstances should be the motto of our life: I shall try again and again, and I am bound to succeed. There will be obstacles, but I have to defy the obstacles.
Sri Chinmoy

If you have inner peace, nobody can force you to be a slave to the outer reality.

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
Image
Silence is the nest and music is the bird. The bird leaves the nest early in the morning and returns to the nest in the evening. Similarly, in the spiritual world, divine music comes from the inmost soul of Silence.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Where love is thick, faults are thin. If you really love someone, then it is difficult to find fault with him. His faults seem negligible, for love means oneness.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
If you play divine music, spiritual music, then you are bound to give and get satisfaction.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
The fulfilment of life is in the making and manifesting of impossible dreams.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Say I have set my goal at 300 pounds, and I cannot do it. The very fact that I have been devotedly practising and practising gives me joy, and the tenacity or perseverance that I am showing is itself progress. Anything that we do devotedly and soulfully helps us make progress.
Sri Chinmoy

What comes to me unmistakably is what I carefully or carelessly invite.
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
There is no human being on earth who does not have the capacity to offer the message of peace to the world at large. But what is needed now is the soulful willingness.

Character is the colossal hope of human improvement within and without.
