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

A spiritually established life is not an easy task. But a materially satisfied life is an impossible task.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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.

There is no greater miracle than our conscious efforts to become good human beings.
Sri Chinmoy
Image
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
Image
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
