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.

More quotes by Sri Chinmoy
Hope is sweet. Hope is illumining. Hope is fulfilling. Hope can be everlasting. Therefore, do not give up hope, Even in the sunset of your life.
Sri Chinmoy
Allow failure to teach you A supreme lesson: Each sunset is the beginning Of a very, very bright And powerful sunrise.
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 we listen to the Inner Voice, our outer life becomes full of peace.
Sri Chinmoy
The beckoning Hands Of God's hopeful Smile Will, without fail, one day greet The fruitful cries Of man's prayerful heart.
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
O kindle the fire of happiness ! Therein I shall see The door of friendliness, The room of greatness And the palace of godness. I shall see, I shall see.
Sri Chinmoy
Love is hope. Hope is nectar.
Sri Chinmoy
God loves only one philosophy, And that is the Do-it-here-now philosophy.
Sri Chinmoy
There comes a time in the seeker's life when he discovers that he is at once the lover and the beloved.
Sri Chinmoy
Cry within. Meditate within. Dive within. Your inner achievements will far outweigh your outer imperfections.
Sri Chinmoy
Instead of creating a reason why you cannot love the world, try to create a reason why you should and must love the world.
Sri Chinmoy
If you have inner peace, nobody can force you to be a slave to the outer reality.
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
If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy. Do not surrender to fate after a single failure. Failure, at most, precedes success.
Sri Chinmoy
Impossibility is a dictionary word.
Sri Chinmoy
You and I create the world by the vibrations that we offer to the world.
Sri Chinmoy
We are all God's children. But world-peace-dreamers, world-peace-lovers and world-peace-servers are undoubtedly God's choicest children.
Sri Chinmoy
There is nothing more powerful than peace.
Sri Chinmoy
Let us not try to understand music with our mind. Let us not even try to feel it with our heart. Let us simply and spontaneously allow the music-bird to fly in our heart-sky. While flying, it will unconditionally reveal to us what it has and what it is. What it has, is Immortality's message. What it is, is Eternity's passage.
