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.

More quotes by 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
Meditation is the eye that sees the Truth, the heart that feels the Truth and the soul that realises the Truth.
Sri Chinmoy
When we meditate we expand, spreading our wings like a bird, trying to enter consciously into Infinity, Eternity and Immortality, welcoming them into our aspiring consciousness. We see, feel and grow into the entire universe of Light-Delight.
Sri Chinmoy
How can one know who his spiritual teacher is?...His heart looks at the spiritual Masters and makes the choice. When the heart sees a spiritual Master, if it is overwhelmed with joy, then there is every probability that that spiritual Master is the right one for the seeker.
Sri Chinmoy
Doubt is an old disease. Faith is an old medicine. Compassion is an old doctor. Concern is an old nurse.
Sri Chinmoy
If you depend on God's grace there is no such thing as impossible.
Sri Chinmoy
Just becauseWe cannot see,We are not entitled to doubt.
Sri Chinmoy
Peace is something spontaneous it is something that unites us. Peace is something that we have to spread. But unless and until we have peace deep within us, we can never hope to have peace in the outer world.
Sri Chinmoy
Our goal is to go from bright to brighter to brightest, from high to higher to highest. And even in the highest, there is no end to our progress, for God Himself is inside each of us and God at every moment is transcending His own Reality.
Sri Chinmoy
By hating that person, you have lost something very sweet in yourself.
Sri Chinmoy
To deliberately criticise another individual may cause an indelible stain on the critic.
Sri Chinmoy
My life is only half full When I receive. My heart is completely full Only when I give.
Sri Chinmoy
Not the power to conquer others but the power to become one with others is the ultimate power.
Sri Chinmoy
Truth is in all, But love is all.
Sri Chinmoy
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
Either by silencing the mind or by opening the heart, today's man can become tomorrow's God, tomorrow's Divinity. And embodied Divinity soon becomes revealed Immortality.
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.
Sri Chinmoy
There is nothing more powerful than peace.
Sri Chinmoy
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
The difficulty is that we try to perfect others before we perfect ourselves.
Sri Chinmoy
