“If one never learns the art of living, you can't have silence, love, joy, truth, freedom, beauty and grace in life. It all depends on how you live. It all depends on how you approach life.
One comes into life with a great potential, but very few people develop that potential. The potential remains unused.
The seeker of truth have to become committed, dynamic and always move into the unknown. He needs to be always reaching for the stars. And then life becomes filled with joy and fragrance.
It is that fragrance that has been called, God, nirvana, and enlightenment. It is life that blossoms.”
Quote by Swami Dhyan Giten
“But I say nothing because sometimes silence is the only thing that feels good.”
