The greatest misfortune that can come to a human being is to lose his inner peace. No outer force can rob him of it. It is his own thoughts, his own actions, that rob him of it.

More quotes by Sri Chinmoy
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
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.
Sri Chinmoy
A peaceful worldIs an immediate, utter and absoluteNecessity.
Sri Chinmoy
Alas, why does my mind have to walk through the dust of the past every day?
Sri Chinmoy
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
The beckoning Hands Of God's hopeful Smile Will, without fail, one day greet The fruitful cries Of man's prayerful heart.
Sri Chinmoy
World peace can blossom throughout the length and breadth of the world only when the world-peace-dreamers, world-peace-lovers and world-peace-servers desperately, sleeplessly and breathlessly long for the full manifestation of peace here on earth.
Sri Chinmoy
You have no idea How much you do for mankind When you love God unconditionally Even for a fleeting moment.
Sri Chinmoy
Meditation gives us peace of mind without a tranquilizer. And unlike a tranquilizer, the peace of mind that we get from meditation does not fade away. It lasts for good in some corner of the inmost recesses of our aspiring heart.
Sri Chinmoy
This world of ours has everything save and except one thing: peace. And this peace has to start from within. If I have peace of mind, then only can I be of help to you. If you have peace of mind, then only can you be of help to me.
Sri Chinmoy
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
If you are already an awakened soul, Then you must realise That God has already given you A supreme task to perform: He wants you to work For His Vision's world-blossoms.
Sri Chinmoy
Love and liveAnd live and loveEach momentTo the fullest.
Sri Chinmoy
Now is the time to make good use of time. Today is the day to begin a perfect day.
Sri Chinmoy
Just becauseWe cannot see,We are not entitled to doubt.
Sri Chinmoy
Meditation speaks. It speaks in silence. It reveals. It reveals to the aspirant that matter and spirit are one, quantity and quality are one, the immanent and the transcendent are one. It reveals that life can never be the mere existence of seventy or eighty years between birth and death, but is, rather, Eternity itself.
Sri Chinmoy
No religion is absolutely perfect. Yet not only do we fight for religion, but also are we often willing to sacrifice our lives for it. And what we hopelessly fail to do is to live it. A true religion is that which has no caste, no creed, no colour. It is but an all-uniting and all-pervading embrace.
Sri Chinmoy
Beyond speech and mind, Into the river of ever-effulgent Light My heart dives. Today thousands of doors, closed for millennia, Are opened wide.
Sri Chinmoy
Each good thought that you have encouraged and nourished is your life's true work of art.
Sri Chinmoy
Truth is in all, But love is all.
Sri Chinmoy
