Life Quotes
He is born in vain, who having attained the human birth, so difficult to get, does not attempt to realize God in this very life.
In our daily life, a certain way of thinking makes us happy, and a certain way of thinking makes us unhappy. In other words, there are certain states of mind which bring us problems, and they can be removed.
You must not let your life run in the ordinary way; do something that nobody else has done, something that will dazzle the world. Show that God's creative principle works in you.
The number of those endowed with human life is as small as the amount of earth one can place on a fingernail. Life as a human being is hard to sustain--as hard as it is for the dew to remain on the grass. But it is better to live a single day with honor than to live to 120 and die in disgrace.
I seem to be a brief light that flashes but once in all the aeons of time a rare, complicated, and all-too-delicate organism on the fringe of biological evolution, where the wave of life bursts into individual, sparkling, and multicolored drops that gleam for a moment... only to vanish forever.
Love is our true essence. Love has no limitations of caste, religion, race, or nationality. We are all beads strung together on the same thread of love. To awaken this unity-and to spread to others the love that is our inherent nature-is the true goal of human life.
We live in a body that is like a house we can live in during one life. Some love the body and become attached to it. Some consider the body everything, and some even think “I am the body.” Some people may not like or love their body. Undoubtedly, we may wonder why so many people dislike their bodies since they chose them. Their suffering is the result of their own ignorance. Indeed, all suffering is due to ignorance. “I do not like this body; I want to change it. I do not look nice; I am ugly.”
True holiness does not mean a flight from the world; rather, it lies in the effort to incarnate the Gospel in everyday life, in the family, at school and at work, and in social and political involvement.
When your body is steady and straight, your breath will come rhythmically and your life will be beautiful.
The whole purpose of life is to gain enlightenment. Nothing else is significant compared to that completely natural, exalted state of consciousness. So always strive for that. Set your life around that goal. Don't get caught up in small things, and then it will be yours.
The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.
Forbearance is the best policy in life.
If one is not happy, one has lost the very purpose of life.
Human values should predominate in men's thoughts. Human life has no meaning without these values.
Being one with life is being one with Now. You then realize that you don't live your life, but life lives you. Life is the dancer, and you are the dance.
Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.
Life, the river of the Spirit, consenting to anguish and sorrow.
What is God? The eternal one life underneath all the forms of life. What is love? To feel the presence of the one life deep within yourself and all creatures; to be it! Therefore, all love is the love of God.
When attention is given to the spiritual aspect of one's life, it brings a sense of belongingness, and responsibility, compassion and caring for the whole of humanity.
In life, loss is inevitable. Everyone knows this, yet in the core of most people it remains deeply denied – ‘This should not happen to me.’ It is for this reason that loss is the most difficult challenge one has to face as a human being.
The purpose of disturbances in our life is to break us from our complacency, to give us a sense of really needing to dive deeper into the constant current of truth that is steady and peaceful.
One thing is certain, uncertainty of our life.
You can conquer the whole world, the universe but if you cannot conquer your mind and senses, you are defeated in life.
