Quotations
Self - Discovery
Never mind searching for who you are. Search for the person you aspire to be.
-Robert Brault
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else. The Bible says, “Seek that kingdom within you.” Once you have found that, then everything else will be automatically added unto you; you don’t have to go looking for things outside; they will all come to you.
-Satchidananda Saraswati "Swami Satchidananda"
The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.

By self-study, by observing, by being hollow and empty, you become a channel - you become a part of the Divine. You are able to feel the presence of Divinity. All the different angels and devas, all these different forms of our consciousness, start blossoming.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "Sri Sri Ravi Shankar"
There is deep wisdom within our very flesh, if we can only come to our senses and feel it.
-Elizabeth A. Behnke
No one remains quite what he was when he recognizes himself.
-Thomas Mann
There are chapters in every life which are seldom read and certainly not aloud.
