More quotes by Sri Chinmoy
Man-made religions find fault with one another, whereas God-made religion is eternally a oneness-song - God-manifestation through human aspiration on earth.
Sri Chinmoy
Do not cherish suffering. Don't act like a fool. Don't think that your suffering is going to accelerate your spiritual progress.
Sri Chinmoy
Every second a seeker can start over, For his life's mistakes Are initial drafts And not the final version.
Sri Chinmoy
Alas, why does my mind have to walk through the dust of the past every day?
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
Meditation speaks. It speaks in silence.
Sri Chinmoy
Complete and total perfection will come about only when we feel that our perfection is no perfections as long as the rest of humanity remains imperfect.
Sri Chinmoy
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
Do you want to be happy? Then make your life as soulfully simple As sleeplessly breathing.
Sri Chinmoy
Of all the medicines In the inner life, A smile is by far The best medecine.
Sri Chinmoy
Outer fire we need to cook. Inner fire we need to liberate. God's Fire we need to love.
Sri Chinmoy
If we can feel that it is not our voice, not our fingers, but some reality deep inside our heart which is expressing itself, then we will know that it is the soul’s music.
Sri Chinmoy
To hope is to see with the eye of the heart. To hope is to make the heart captain the vital and the body. To hope is to send darkness-night into exile.
Sri Chinmoy
Each good thought that you have encouraged and nourished is your life's true work of art.
Sri Chinmoy
To deliberately criticise another individual may cause an indelible stain on the critic.
Sri Chinmoy
Peace is the whole truth that wishes to enrapture humanity. War is the whole falsehood that wants to capture humanity. Peace begins in the soul and ends in the heart. War begins in the mind and ends in the body.
Sri Chinmoy
God is the Supreme Musician. It is He who is playing with us, on us and in us. We cannot separate God from His music. The universal Consciousness is constantly being played by the Supreme Himself, and is constantly growing into the Supreme Music.
Sri Chinmoy
A peaceful worldIs an immediate, utter and absoluteNecessity.
Sri Chinmoy
One who has an inferiority complex can never be really humble, but can only have false modesty or false humility.
Sri Chinmoy
No mind, no form, I only exist now ceased all will and thought the final end of [Nature]]'s dance, I am it whom I have sought.
Sri Chinmoy
