Mysticism, poor mysticism! When it is oversimplified and underestimated, it comes down from its original sphere and stands beside religion.
Sri Chinmoy
To deliberately criticise another individual may cause an indelible stain on the critic.
Sri Chinmoy
The greatest misfortune that can come to a human being is to lose his inner peace. No outer force can rob him of it. It is his own thoughts, his own actions, that rob him of it.
Sri Chinmoy
Meditation simplifies our outer life and energizes our inner life. Meditation gives us a natural and spontaneous life, a life that becomes so natural and spontaneous that we cannot breathe without being conscious of our own divinity.
Sri Chinmoy
What is meditation? Meditation is our conscious awareness of something vast and infinite within us. Meditation grants us Peace, Light and Bliss.
Sri Chinmoy
The human mind is utterly stupid when it carries, quite willingly, the heavy burden of resentment.
Sri Chinmoy
Inside each one of us is a beautiful flower garden. This is the garden of the soul. With each lesson we learn, the garden grows. As we learn together, our individual gardens form a tranquil paradise.
Sri Chinmoy
Lack of harmony comes when I feel that I know how to do something better than you. Lack of harmony is the song and dance of superiority. Because everybody feels superior, disharmony at every moment is entering into our lives.
Sri Chinmoy
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
You and I create the world by the vibrations that we offer to the world.
Sri Chinmoy
Hope is at once both simple and profound. It is hope that binds Heaven and earth. Hope is the bridge between Heaven and earth.
Sri Chinmoy
The reason I have entered into bodybuilding and weightlifting is to inspire everybody to pray and meditate so they can bring to the fore their own inner strength. If everybody brings to the fore his own inner strength, the world will eventually be inundated with peace.
Sri Chinmoy
The Stormy life can be braved Only by the heart's Sunny meditations.
Sri Chinmoy
Man's eternal question is:'Who is God?'God's immediate answer is:'My child, who else is God, if not you?
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
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.
Sri Chinmoy
The real in me longs for peace. The unreal in me longs for power.
Sri Chinmoy
Every second a seeker can start over, For his life's mistakes Are initial drafts And not the final version.
Sri Chinmoy
Love is hope. Hope is nectar.
Sri Chinmoy
To hope is to see with the eye of the heart. To hope is to make the heart captain the vital and the body. To hope is to send darkness-night into exile.
Sri Chinmoy
