Quote

Each new day beckons you to walk on the road of self-transcendence. We transcend ourselves, we do not compete with others. We compete only with our previous achievements, and we get joy. Life is nothing but a perpetual possibility.

I'm not a weight lifter. I'm a seeker. Weight lifting is so insignificant in my life.
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
True, this world of ours is full of hatred and disbelief, but that is no reason why we should not love and why we should not believe. We must love and believe in order to empty the hatred-sea.

Meditation is the language of God. If we want to know what God's Will is in our life, if we want God to guide us, mould us and fulfil Himself in and through us, then meditation is the language that we must use.
Sri Chinmoy

Doubt is an old disease. Faith is an old medicine. Compassion is an old doctor. Concern is an old nurse.

Allow failure to teach you A supreme lesson: Each sunset is the beginning Of a very, very bright And powerful sunrise.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
No more my heart shall sob or grieve. My days and nights dissolve in God's own Light. Above the toil of life, my soul is a Bird of Fire winging the Infinite.
Sri Chinmoy
