Famous Swami Saradananda Quotes

“Perform random acts of kindness, these are selfless acts that you can carry out. Although there may be no reason for you to make another person smile, or be happier, the action helps to remove your karmic blockages. Your action can be as simple as smiling at someone, saying hello, or offering to help with something. An act of kindess isn't necessarily a grand gesture or a huge donation.”

“Being content in the present, while striving to improve your future life, involves a deep acceptance and understanding of the law of karma. It enables you to release the blockages that consume vast amounts of your energy with thoughts that you shouldn't have done something, or you should have done it in a different way. Learn from your mistakes and move on, without letting regrets devour you. Start noticing how your present efforts enable you to change your future.”

In fact, it can enable you to be more effective in obtaining more of what you want out of life/ Meditation empowers you to work from a place of inner peace, rather than from a state of restless anxiety.
