If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
-Sri Guru Granth Sahib "Sri Guru Granth Sahib"
Quotations
Mind
-Sri Guru Granth Sahib "Sri Guru Granth Sahib"
Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?
-Adi Shankara "Adi Shankaracharya"
The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with mind, you get bored and restless very easily. Boredom means the mind is hungry for more stimulus…it is not satisfied.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
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
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"
Once we surrender our mind to Divine Grace completely, we will be taken care of in every way.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
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"
Any physical inhibition is of no value. Valuable is the intelligence which can
transform your mind.
-Deep Trivedi
“Make your offering,” said the Master. “As you make it be pleased in mind. Make your mind completely calm and contented. Focus and fill the offering-mind with the giving. From this secure position you can be free from ill will.”
-Sutta Nipata "Sutta Nipata 506"
Delusion is a sort of demonic force. People’s original mind is pure but it becomes perverted due to delusion and other karmas.
-Scriptures "Kundakunda, Pancastikaya 38"
