Quote

Love is not a thing to understand. Love is not a thing to feel. Love is not a thing to give and receive. Love is a thing only to become and eternally Be.

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.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
It is not human nature to enjoy what we get with no effort.
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.
Sri Chinmoy

Truth is in all, But love is all.
Sri Chinmoy

At last He is healed of his self-doubt. Now what is happening ? He is awakening To his souls ecstasy-sun.

God loves only one philosophy, And that is the Do-it-here-now philosophy.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
If you have inner peace, nobody can force you to be a slave to the outer reality.
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.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
Hope and faith are two intimate brothers they always go together. Hope nourishes faith and faith treasures hope.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Each individual has to know himself. He has to know himself as the infinite, eternal and immortal Consciousness.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
My mind wants to interpret All my dreams. My heart wants to love All my dreams. My soul wants to fulfil All my dreams.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Music is inspiration, soulful inspiration. It inspires the human in us. Music is manifestation, fruitful manifestation. It manifests the divine in us. Music is satisfaction, supreme satisfaction. It satisfies the Pilot Supreme in us.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
I do not compete with anybody else I compete only with myself. You saw my capacity a few minutes ago. Now I am competing with myself. When I do weightlifting, my body is my world. If I can improve myself, if I can go beyond my previous achievements, then that is my goal. My own previous record is always what I am competing with.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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.

Even the tiniest of hopes can show me the way to arrive at my goal.

Character is just what we inwardly are and outwardly do.
Sri Chinmoy

I took a closer look. There is no such thing as ignorance. Ignorance is nothing But my limited knowledge. I took a closer look. There is no such thing as defeat. Defeat is nothing But the inspirer Of my increasing will. I took a closer look. There is no such thing as death. Death is nothing But my strengthening And Dreaming rest.

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.
