THE only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders. SPINOZA
WHEN I talk about forgiveness, I mean letting go, not excusing the other person or reconciling with them or condoning the behavior. Just letting go of your own suffering. DEAN ORNISH
SWAMI SATCHIDANANDA — 1914-2002. “INTEGAL YOGA HATHA”.
THE LIGHT IS WITHIN. IT IS ALREADY THERE. TAKE YOU TIME TO SEE IT.
PEACE comes not from doing but from undoing; not from getting but from letting go.
YOU are the cause of your own joy or your own misery. You hold that power. You are your own friend and your own enemy.
YOGA believes in transforming the individual before transforming the world.
Whatever change you want to happen outside should happen within. If you walk in peace and express that peace in your very life, others will see you and learn something.
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.
ANYTHING YOU THROW COMES BACK. ALL YOUR ACTIONS ARE ECHOES.
IF YOUR HEART IS BEAUTIFUL, your face will be beautiful, your life will be beautiful, everything will be beautiful.
IF you are becoming more easeful, peaceful & useful then you know you are growing.
NEVER GIVE UP; nothing is done overnight. Anyone who has achieved anything in life always did it after many failures. don’t give up hope.
DO you want to know the secret of life? If you want to have everything, don’t want anything. Everything will run after you.
WHO WILL BE TE HAPPIEST PERSON?
THE ONE WHO BRINGS HAPPINESS TO OTHERS.
THE GREATEST VICTORY YOU CAN WIN IS OVER YOUR OWN MIND.
EVERY PAIN HAS A GAIN BEHIND IT.
AS YOU ARE, YOU SEE EVERYTHING ELSE.
NOW will never leave. It is always here. Like a clear canvas, it awaits our painting.
DEATH can come at any minute in any way. We do not know what is in store tomorrow or whether there is a tomorrow or even tonight! But still we have the golden present. Now we are alive and kicking. What should we do now? Love all, serve all.
