స్వామి సత్యానంద సూక్తి

“To move in a Rolls-Royce is not real civilisation. To have skyscrapers is not civilisation. To have helicopters is not civilisation. To have abundant wealth is not civilisation. To have titles and honours is not civilisation.

To be honest, humble and pious is civilisation. To be saintly and compassionate is civilisation. To be endowed with devotion and wisdom is civilisation. To have the spirit of service and sacrifice is civilisation”.

~ Swami Satyananda Saraswati.

పిల్లలకు పరమాచార్యులవారి బోధ - అసూయ

 Jealousy

Another big dirt that easily accumulates in children is jealousy. If another boy is better than them in studies or sports or he is well dressed or he is dropped at the school by a car, they immediately become jealous of him. Such jealousy will spoil the mind and lead to various types of quarrels which will affect the studies. Jealousy does not help in any way. It only results in our spoiling our mind ourselves.

కంచి పరమాచార్య సూక్తి

Uttering Lies and Fear - 3

You must have respect and devotion for all elders but meaningless fear should not be there. Fear is dirt that spoils the mind. Even if a wrong is committed, the elders should be told of it with humility but no attempt should be made to hide it by telling a lie. If the wrong is told to others truthfully, they will pardon. Even if they do not pardon but mete out some punishment, that too does not matter. They have the right to do so. We have to accept the punishment with courage, thinking, ‘we did a wrong thing; therefore we have received the punishment due for it’. Courage, truth etc, are like soap and other detergents that remove dirt.

- Kanchi Paramacharya

స్వామి శివానంద సూక్తి

By your own thoughts you make or mar your world. Inevitable law of reaction is such, O man! that whatever you will harbour in the inmost chamber of your heart, will shape itself in your outward life. Chance seems to form the surface of reality, but deep down, thought-forces are at work. Nothing in this universe and in daily behaviour is merely accidental. So improve your thoughts.

- Swami Sivananda

- Swami Satchidananda

భారతీ తీర్థ స్వామి సూక్తి

It is important to begin a task with guruvandhana. Without the grace of guru, nothing takes a complete form. Praying guru is equivalent to praying our Lord, who is in the form of saguna (visible) and the nirguna (invisible).

Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal

కంచి పరమాచార్య సూక్తి

Why do we try to hide our wrongs? We do it either because we want others to think that we are good or because we are afraid of someone. The disease of lie shows itself as the disease of fear.
