The soul dwelling within each one of us is the most powerful energy of the
universe. And this soul is only the supreme power. Now despite knowing and
understanding all this, if we still visit temples, mosques and religious places...
then does it show anything other than distrust on our own soul?
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Soul
In life, nothing can be costlier than gaining anything by compromising the soul.
-Deep Trivedi
Like the waves in great rivers, there is no turning back of that which has previously been done…The soul is bound with the fetters made of the fruit of good and evil.
- Upanishads "Maitri Upanishad 4.2"
Every one of us has in him a continent of undiscovered character. Blessed is he who acts as Columbus to his own soul.
-Anonymous "Anonymous"
One who identifies himself with his soul regards bodily transmigration of his soul at death fearlessly, like changing one cloth for another.
-Scriptures "Pujyapada, Samadhishataka 77"
Prana, the vital breath, is born of Self. Like a person and his shadow, the Self and Prana are inseparable. Prana enters the body at birth, but does not die with the body.
- Upanishads "Prana Upanisad"
My Place is the placeless, my trace is the traceless; ‘I’ is neither body nor soul, for ‘I’ belong to the soul of the Beloved. I have put duality away, I have seen that the two worlds are one; One I seek, One I know, One I see, One I call.
-Rumi "Jalaluddin Rumi"
Since, O Mazda, from the beginning, Thou didst create soul and body; mental power and knowledge and since Thou didst place life within the corporeal body and didst bestow to mankind the power to act, speak and guide, you wished that everyone should choose his or her own faith and path freely.
-Scriptures "Yasna 31, Verse 11"
The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for until the cord be broken, the bird cannot fly.
-A Spiritual Leader "St. John of the Cross"
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
-Swami Vivekananda "Swami Vivekananda"
