Not the power to conquer others but the power to become one with others is the ultimate power.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
When we transcend ourselves, we do not compete with others. We do not compete with the rest of the world, but at every moment we compete with ourselves.
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
Hatred is a disguised form of love. You can only hate someone whom you really wish to love, because if you were totally indifferent to that person, you could not even get up enough energy to hate him.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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 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.

Image
There is no fundamental difference between one religion and another, because each religion embodies the ultimate Truth. Each religion is right, absolutely right, because each religion conveys the message of Truth in its own way.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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

Impossibility is a dictionary word.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
I am a man of prayer and meditation. I feel inspiration is of paramount importance. If I can inspire someone, and if that person also can inspire me, then we can do many good things for the betterment of this world.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
You have no idea How much you do for mankind When you love God unconditionally Even for a fleeting moment.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
One who has an inferiority complex can never be really humble, but can only have false modesty or false humility.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
You may not know, But it is absolutely true: With each heartbeat Your heart is calling: God, God! You may not hear it, But God Himself definitely hears Your heart's cry.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Those who run after happiness will never be happy. Happiness is something that has to come to the fore from within.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
Mysticism, poor mysticism! When it is oversimplified and underestimated, it comes down from its original sphere and stands beside religion.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
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.

Of all the medicines In the inner life, A smile is by far The best medecine.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
If you depend on God's grace there is no such thing as impossible.
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.
