Some quotes from Speaking Tree.
·
Blows are what awaken us
and help to break the dream. They show us the insufficiency of this world and
make us long to escape, to have freedom. – Swami Vivekananda
·
Be strict and
intelligently critical about yourself and your own weakness and follies. But,
cushion your words and attitudes with Love. Love is the greatest persuasive
power we know in life. – Swami Chinamaya
·
Endurance is one of
the most difficult disciplines, but it is to the one who endures that the final
victory comes. - Buddha
·
Ambition is like love,
impatient both of delays and rivals. - Buddha
·
What is the
appropriate behaviour for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where
each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation
between people as they pass each other in this flood? – Buddha
·
Come prepared to
receive not so much of My Words, but of My Silence. – Meher Baba
·
Hold to the idea, “I
am not the mind, I see that I am thinking, I am watching my mind act,” and each
day the identification of yourself with thoughts and feelings will grow less,
until at last you can entirely separate yourself from the mind and actually
know it to be apart from yourself. – Swami Vivekananda
·
To say, `LORD IS' is
Gyanam. But `THE LORD IS I' is Vigyanam. – Swami Chinmaya
