“By work alone, men may get to where Buddha got largely by meditation or Christ by prayer. Buddha was a working Jnani, Christ was a Bhakta, but the same goal was reached by both of them. Good motives, sincerity, and infinite love can conquer the world. One single soul possessed of these virtues can destroy the dark designs of millions of hypocrites and brutes.” MenWorldMaySoulGoalChristDarkPrayerMillionsVirtueMeditationDesignInfiniteConquerMotiveSincerityPossessedHypocriteBrutesInfinite LoveConquer The WorldAlone Man Author:Swami Vivekananda
“It is never too late to turn on the light. Your ability to break an unhealthy habit or turn off an old tape doesn't depend on how long it has been running; a shift in perspective doesn't depend on how long you've held on to the old view. When you flip the switch in that attic, it doesn't matter whether its been dark for ten minutes, ten years or ten decades. The light still illuminates the room and banishes the murkiness, letting you see the things you couldn't see before. Its never too late to take a moment to look.” YearsLooksLongHas BeensStillsMatterMomentsLightRunningTurnsDarkAbilityRoomsViewsBreakMeditationMinutesPerspectiveDependsHabitTenLateDecadesToo LateTapeTurn-onFlipUnhealthyTurn OffNever Too LateMeditation PracticeAttics Book:Real Happiness: A 28-day Programme to Connect with the Power of Meditation Source: Real Happiness: A 28-day Programme to Connect with the Power of Meditation
“Meditation upon death does not teach one how to die; it does not make the departure more easy, but ease is not what I seek. Beloved boy, so willful and brooding, your sacrifice will have enriched not my life but my death. ... Centuries as yet unborn within the dark womb of time would pass by thousands over that tomb without restoring life to him, but likewise without adding to his death, and without changing the fact that he had been.” DoeFactsDiesEasyDarkBoysTeachMeditationSacrificeCenturyEaseBelovedWombTombsUnbornDepartureRestoringBrooding Author:Marguerite Yourcenar
