Yesterday I was clever that is why I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise that is why I am changing myself.
-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"
Yesterday I was clever that is why I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise that is why I am changing myself.
It is not that the world has deteriorated today. You perceive the world as you are.
The world has been the same from the very beginning; neither has there been
a virtuous age (Dharma yuga) nor a sin age (Papi yuga). Here, everything has
always been dependent on an individual's perspective with which he looks at it.
-Deep Trivedi
You and the world should stop thinking of changing each other. Just allow a third person to do the needful. You know who I mean: God, the only Doer.
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
Can the world exist without one to cognise it? Which comes first the being-consciousness or the rising-consciousness? The former is always there and eternal; the latter rises and disappears. It is transient.
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
