More quotes by Sri Chinmoy
Silence is the nest and music is the bird. The bird leaves the nest early in the morning and returns to the nest in the evening. Similarly, in the spiritual world, divine music comes from the inmost soul of Silence.
Sri Chinmoy
Our mind thinks of death. Our heart thinks of life. Our soul thinks of Immortality.
Sri Chinmoy
When your love is pure or spiritual, there is no demand, no expectation. There is only the sweetest feeling of spontaneous oneness with the human being or beings concerned.
Sri Chinmoy
The Stormy life can be braved Only by the heart's Sunny meditations.
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 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
What is Yoga? Yoga is self-conquest. Self-conquest is God-Realization. He who practices Yoga does two things with one stroke: he simplifies his whole life and he gets a freee access to the Divine.
Sri Chinmoy
Music is the language of God. God's language, music, is not like mathematics or geometry. It is a language of love. If we love music, that is enough.
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
A spiritually established life is not an easy task. But a materially satisfied life is an impossible task.
Sri Chinmoy
Life is nothing but the expansion of love.
Sri Chinmoy
Peace is something tangible. It silences the outgoing energy of the mind and feeds the aspiring heart. Peace is not merely the absence of quarreling and fighting. True peace is not affected by the roaring of the world, outer or inner. This sea of peace is at our command if we practise the spiritual life.
Sri Chinmoy
Never give up hope! Hope ultimately succeeds.
Sri Chinmoy
Meditation speaks. It speaks in silence.
Sri Chinmoy
Keep an open heart To allow the world Lovingly and faithfully To come in.
Sri Chinmoy
The Goal can disappear From the mind's sight But not From the heart's vision.
Sri Chinmoy
Where love is thick, faults are thin. If you really love someone, then it is difficult to find fault with him. His faults seem negligible, for love means oneness.
Sri Chinmoy
When you invent something, there will always be people to criticise. God's creation is full of critics, but has God given up His creation because of the critics?
Sri Chinmoy
Gratitude is the sweetest thing in a seeker's life- in all human life. If there is gratitude in your heart, then there will be tremendous sweetness in your eyes.
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
