The energy of the mind is the essence of life.

-Aristotle "Aristotle"

Your 'mind' is actually the sum-total of vibrations. So, it will always be beyond the reach of science. And since you experience all your pains and pleasures also on the screen of mind, science can never reveal the amount of pains and miseries hidden in you or where does it come from. Neither will it ever succeed in surgically removing those miseries from your body.

-Deep Trivedi

No vibration emanating from our "mind" can ever be suppressed nor can any vibration be created in mind... they can only be transformed.

-Deep Trivedi

Excessive attachment to sense pleasures leads to bondage, and detachment from sense pleasures leads to liberation; therefore it is the mind alone that is responsible for bondage or liberation.

-Chanakya "Chanakya"

Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.

-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"

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"

All the effective knowledge is very much hidden in the deep recesses of human mind. This is the reason, be it melodies of Mozart or Omar Khayyam's rubaiyat, Krishna's Bhagavad Gita or Einstein's formula which transformed the world E=mc²; all of them have stemmed from within.

-Deep Trivedi

A man, who realises the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, he does not lack self-confidence. He has control over his mind and he is able to realise its full potential

-Vedas "Sama Veda"

Whoever has achieved great success in life, they have knowingly or unknowingly, firmly opted for one of the four ways of mind; joy, nature, independence or being natural and whatever the path once chosen, irrespective of the circumstances... they have incessantly followed it.

-Deep Trivedi

Now you worship His Form, you repeat His name; ignoring His orders. Without practicing the discipline laid down by Rama to purify the mind, all else is mere show, empty rituals.

-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
