Some quotes from Speaking Tree.
·
While genius is novel,
novelty is not genius. – Thomas M Easley
·
Practise meditation
before you preach it. – Swami Chinmaya
·
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to
evil ways. – Buddha
·
The whole secret of
existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no
one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed. - Buddha
·
'That inner Self, as
the primeval Spirit, Eternal, ever effulgent, full and infinite Bliss, Single,
indivisible, whole and living, Shines in everyone as the witnessing awareness.
That self in its splendour, shining in the cavity of the heart. This self is
neither born nor dies, Neither grows nor decays, Nor does it suffer any change.
When a pot is broken, the space within it is not, And similarly, when the body
dies the Self in it remains eternal. – Ramana Maharishi
·
The more you think of
yourself as shining immortal spirit, the more eager you will be to be
absolutely free of matter, body, and senses. This is the intense desire to be
free. – Swami Vivekananda

IT is good to love God
for hope of reward, but it is better to love God for love's sake; and the
prayer goes: O Lord, I do not want wealth nor, children nor learning. If it be
Thy will, I shall go from birth to birth. But grant me this, that I may love
thee without the hope of reward--'love' unselfishly for love's sake. - Swami
Vivekananda

Unity can only be
manifested by the Binary. Unity itself and the idea of Unity are already two. -
Buddha
