If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
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.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
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 in no attachment.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
The entire world may not change. But your tiny world you can and will change forever at this very moment with the help of your confidence-heart. Yours will be the unparalleled victory.
