Swami Satchidananda

Anything that you throw comes back. All your actions are echoes.
Swami Satchidananda

. . . I feel we don’t really need scriptures. The entire life is an open book, a scripture. Read it. Learn while digging a pit or chopping some wood or cooking some food. If you can’t learn from your daily activities, how are you going to understand the scriptures? (233)

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
There is one Cosmic Essence, all-pervading, all-knowing, all-powerful. This nameless formless essence can be approached by any name, any form, any symbol that suites the taste of the individual. Follow your religion, but try to understand the real purpose behind all of the rituals and traditions, and experience that Oneness.

Temples and churches have become social centers. They have lost their original purpose because the minds of the people are more attracted to worldly things than to prayer. The lips repeat the prayer mechanically like a phonograph record, but the mind wanders to other places. (23-24)
Swami Satchidananda
Image
If we only look within, we will see he Light as if we were seeing our own image in a mirror. (122)
Swami Satchidananda
Image
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
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

Do you want to know the secret of life? If you want to have everything, don’t want anything. Everything will run after you.
Swami Satchidananda

Any kind of expectation creates a problem. We should accept, but not expect. Whatever comes, accept it. Whatever goes, accept it. The immediate benefit is that your mind is always peaceful.
Swami Satchidananda
