Quote by Jayita Bhattacharjee

“The more I write poems, the more I harvest scented jasmines of my heart, for poetry calls the opening of unopened flower buds, in my depths. Shyly, as they open, sunlight enters my soul, and there flows the ripe scent inside, a lamp in the heart. The poems then become, a worship of God.”

“But the trees again hid the object; and at the moment, some strange melodious bird took up its song, and sang, not an ordinary bird-song, with constant repetitions of the same melody, but what sounded like a continuous strain, in which one thought was expressed, deepening in intensity as it evolved in progress. It sounded like a welcome already overshadowed with the coming farewell. As in all sweetest music, a tinge of sadness was in every note. Nor do we know how much of the pleasures even of life we owe to the intermingled sorrows. Joy cannot unfold the deepest truths, although deepest truth must be deepest joy. Cometh white-robed Sorrow, stooping and wan, and flingeth wide the doors she may not enter. Almost we linger with Sorrow for very love.”

“The most important thing in life is to discover  your truth. Truth is there, because we are alive and conscious. We have to go deeper into our consciousness. And once we have found our consciousness, we have found truth. Once you know who you are, you have found truth. When you find truth, the outer world will be the same, nothing in the outside world has changed, but you will be a totally different person. The outside world will be the same, but nothing will be the same, because you will have a totally new perspective, which is eternal, timeless and deathless. Now you will know that you were before birth, and you will be after death. Now you are free from all small things: life's failures and successes, richness and poverty and small pains and pleasures. Now you can remain centered in every kind of situation in life. Nothing will make you waver, your groundedness is solid and absolute. This integrity, groundedness and state of consciousness remains untouchedby everything. This is the goal of meditation. Once it is discovered, one can live with joy, grace and God within one's heart.”

“Man can live either as love or as an ego. These are the only two alternatives  in life. It is the only two alternative lifestyles. The ego is very attractive, because it promises great things, although it delivers nothing. The ego creates dreams and fantasies, but these fantasies take you further away from yourself. And to be away from yourself is to be away from God, the divine. Love is not at all persuasive. It will not prove itself. You have to choose love, because it does not propagate itself. When the ego fails, because of its deceptive dreams and mirages, it fails for intelligent people. For the stupdid people, it never fails. In that failure of the ego, one moves to egolessness. This is what love is: love is egolessness. Now there is nowhere to go, nothing to achieve and your whole energy starts resting within yourself. And when your energy comes to rest at your center, one comes to know that one is not, only God is. One comes to know that God is my strength. One comes to know that God is my existence, hat God is my being. One comes to know that one is just a small manifestation of divine energy. To know it brings great joy. All worries disappears, all entities disappear, and now you know that there is somebody greater than you who takes care. You are his project to help you to be joyful. When you are inside yourself, you immediately hear the still, small voice within you - and that becomes your inner teacher, your inner guide and your guiding star. Then you have your own insight and you know what is right and wrong. Now you know that living according toone'e own being is to live authentically. That is the way of the spiritual person.”
