More quotes by 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
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
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
Meditation tells you only one thing: God is. Meditation reveals to you only one truth: yours is the vision of God.
Sri Chinmoy
Your mind has a flood of questions. There is but one teacher Who can answer them. Who is that teacher? Your silence-loving heart.
Sri Chinmoy
True humility means giving joy to others.
Sri Chinmoy
Either consciously or unconsciously we are searching for the highest Self, which is at once eternal and infinite.
Sri Chinmoy
Spirituality is the science that teaches us how to achieve peace of mind and supreme satisfaction. Right now we are hankering after many, many things, but nothing we get satisfies us. Spirituality tells us that satisfaction can be found only if we lead a good and divine life-a life of simplicity, purity and humility.
Sri Chinmoy
Never give up! Never give up! Physical fitness is of paramount importance. There is no age limit when we live in the heart and when we try to be of prayerful and soulful service to God in the heart of humanity.
Sri Chinmoy
What you do not use yourself, do not give to others. For example, advice.
Sri Chinmoy
Since life is but a continuous series of experiences, everything ultimately helps me towards my final enlightenment.
Sri Chinmoy
Forgive, you will have happiness. Forget, you will have satisfacton. Forgive and forget, You will have everlasting peace Within and without.
Sri Chinmoy
The satisfaction of life May not be ours, But the beauty of hope Is all ours.
Sri Chinmoy
Real meditation we get from within or from a spiritual Master. We can never get it from books. From books we can get inspiration or an inner approach to the fulfilment of our outer life. But in order to have true meditation we have to go deep within or follow the guidance of a spiritual Master.
Sri Chinmoy
No price is too great to pay for inner peace. Peace is the harmonious control of life. It is vibrant with life-energy. It is a power that easily transcends all our worldly knowledge. Yet it is not separate from our earthly existence. If we open the right avenues within, this peace can be felt here and now.
Sri Chinmoy
Enthusiasm Rules his inner world. Determination Rules his outer world. Therefore Happiness has become His real name.
Sri Chinmoy
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
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
At times to think of one's outer helplessness is good, but to think always of one's inner strength is infinitely better.
Sri Chinmoy
All athletes, without fail, are potentially great and good. A great athlete is a little man tirelessly inspired.
