simplyknowledge | Quotations

No mind, no form, I only exist; Now ceased all will and thought. The final end of the Nature’s dance; I am it whom I have sought. A realm of bliss bare, ultimate, beyond both knower and known. A rest immense I enjoy at last; I face the one alone. I have crossed the secret ways of life; I have become the Goal. The Truth immutable is revealed; I am the way, the God-Soul. My spirit aware of all the heights, I am mute in the core of the Sun. I barter nothing with time and deeds; my cosmic play is done.

-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"

Our mind is full of amazing powers but simultaneously, it has numerous disorders and negativities too. Because we are unable to conquer the negativities, we miss out on its marvellous powers as well.

-Deep Trivedi

Sin - virtue, respect - disrespect, good - bad, success - failure, are all divisions created by the brain. At the level of mind, they are nothing but useless notions.

-Deep Trivedi

No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind" that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably end up being angry.

-Deep Trivedi

Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.

-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 116-18"

The person who knows the functioning of 'his' own mind, can easily understand everyone else's as well, which is why he is able to reign over them. All our life, we unnecessarily engage ourselves in understanding others' minds instead of our own.

-Deep Trivedi

Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched on and off at a fixed time regularly, whereas for mind, the dawn is when you wake up. Understand this difference between man and machine and save your life from becoming mechanical.

-Deep Trivedi

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.

-Khalil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"

It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways.

-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"

Regulate your breathing, and thereby control the mind.

-A Spiritual Leader "B. K. S Iyengar"
