కంచి పరమాచార్య సూక్తి



We are the opposite of Daksinamurti. We don the disguise of non-detachment in order to make others believe that we are at peace with ourselves, but inside we remain all the time agitated.

Outward calm is the first step towards inward stillness -- and this stillness is to be brought about in degrees and will not be gained at once. That is why the wise tell us:"Reduce all your sensual activities. Do not join the crowd. Try to disengage yourself from all work including that of doing good to the world. Keep away from money and dwell in the forest." But do we listen to that advice? We shall do so only when our mind is cleansed.

సద్గురు శివానంద మూర్తి గారి సూక్తి



What exactly do you mean by darkness here?

“Darkness here means ignorance, i.e., ignorance of one’s duty. Moksha is the goal. The desire for liberation is known as the auspicious desire. The one who can fulfill that desire is called Jagatguru.”

స్వామి శివానంద సూక్తి



Nothing is difficult when you strongly make up your mind. Strong determination and firm resolution will bring sanguine success in every affair or undertaking, and particularly so in the conquest of mind.

పరమహంస యోగానంద సూక్తి



There is a magnet in your heart that will attract true friends. That magnet is unselfishness, thinking of others first; when you learn to live for others, they will live for you.
