Worry is the enemy of love. You cannot be in love and be worried at the same time.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Rise above the dualities, the opposites. See this whole world as the bubbles on the surface of water. See people as bubbles on the surface of the Brahman, of the Infinity...Water bubbles up, rises up. Like that, everybody is rising and having their own games and plays and dissolving back into the Infinite.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Nothing in the world can bother you as much as your own mind, I tell you. In fact, others seem to be bothering you, but it is not others, it is your own mind.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
When your intentions are very pure and clear, nature brings support to you.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Meditation is the journey from sound to silence, from movement to stillness, from a limited identity to unlimited space.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
For external beauty, you put on things for real beauty, you have to drop all things. For external beauty you have to have make-up for real beauty you only have to realize that you are already made up.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Real beauty is when you're centered, when our mind is with the truth. That is how every baby is beautiful because they are centered.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Activity and rest are two vital aspects of life. To find a balance in them is a skill in itself. Wisdom is knowing when to have rest, when to have activity, and how much of each to have. Finding them in each other - activity in rest and rest in activity - is the ultimate freedom.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Wake up and realize this is all made up of thoughts, just thoughts. Your appreciation of beauty is a thought your aversion to an object that is ugly is a thought. Your craving or aversion is nothing but a passing thought in the mind. Realize this is just a thought and you will be free.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Boredom is a blessing when it leads you to wisdom. And boredom is a curse when it leads you to frustration and depression.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Do not make an effort to impress others. When you come from the self, your expression is perfect and your impression lasts for ages.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
You should be dynamic, and still be soft in the heart. You should stand against injustice and simultaneously, be compassionate within you, like a saint. Be a saint and a soldier, together
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
If you are a taker of happiness you get misery, if you are a giver of happiness you get joy and love.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Get out of your comfort zone and bring comfort to others.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Mind without agitation is meditation. Mind in the present moment is meditation. Mind that has no hesitation, no anticipation is meditation. Mind that has come back home, to the source, is meditation. Mind that becomes no mind is meditation.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Technology has made the world into a Village. Spirituality has made it into a Global Family.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Have respect for yourself and no one can take away your self respect.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
When you are happy time appears shorter, when you are sad time appears longer. And in meditation we transcend time!
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Your worries, your feelings, your thoughts arise in your own mind. You are totally responsible for all your feelings - how you feel, what you think, what you do... You are responsible.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Don't be over complacent or too feverish, take a middle path.
