Never give up nothing is done overnight. Anyone who achieved anything in life always did it after many failures. Don’t give up hope.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
Mere philosophy will not satisfy us. We cannot reach the goal by mere words alone. Without practice, nothing can be achieved. (3)
Swami Satchidananda
Image
Music is the celestial sound, and it is sound that controls the whole universe, not atomic vibrations. Sound energy, sound power, is much, much greater than any other power in the world.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
Truth is the same always. Whoever ponders it will get the same answer. Buddha got it. Patanjali got it. Jesus got it. Mohammed got it. The answer is the same, but the method of working it out may vary this way or that. (115)
Swami Satchidananda

Yoga believes in transforming the individual before transforming the world. Whatever change we want to happen outside should happen within. If you walk in peace and express that peace in your very life, others will see you and learn something.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
If you do not pour water on your plant, what will happen? It will slowly wither and die. Our habits will also slowly wither and die away if we do not give them an opportunity to manifest. You need not fight to stop a habit. Just don’t give it an opportunity to repeat itself. (67)

You are the cause of your own joy or your own misery. You hold that power. You are your own friend and your own enemy.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
We don’t exhaust the Bible even after reading it hundreds of times. Each time we read it we see it in a new light. That is the greatness of the holy scriptures. They are that way because they were created by holy prophets who experienced the truth. Each time we read these works we elevate ourselves to see a little more. (81)
Swami Satchidananda

If your heart is beautiful, your face will be beautiful, your life will be beautiful, everything will be beautiful.
Swami Satchidananda

God knows your breaking point. You simply don’t know your own strength.
Swami Satchidananda

Anything that you throw comes back. All your actions are echoes.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
The cause of bandha and moksha (bondage and liberation) is our own minds. If we think we are bound, we are bound. If we think we are liberated, we are liberated. . . . It is only when we transcend the mind that we are free from all these troubles. (117)
Swami Satchidananda
Image
Peace comes not from doing, but from undoing not from getting, but from letting go.
Swami Satchidananda

Every pain has a gain behind it
Swami Satchidananda

Our own true nature is Infinite Joy! Always happy, Always peaceful, Always free.
Swami Satchidananda
Image
[C]ontinence is a very important part of yoga. If a handful of people come forward with strong wills, nothing is impossible. One Buddha changed half the globe one Jesus, three quarters of the world. We all have that capacity. (140)
