Quotations
Love
First lose yourself, then only you find Him. The Beloved is not separate from you; just turn your face within.
-Shah Abdul Karim "Shah Abdul Karim"
When you get rid of attachment, there will be love.
-J. Krishnamurti
You love your family, but not your neighbor. You love your parents, but not others’ parents. You love your religion, but not all religions. You love your country, but not all countries. This is not true love, it is limited love. Transformation of limited love into divine love is the goal of spirituality.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
The way of love is as true as the way of knowledge. All paths ultimately lead to the same Truth. But as long as God keeps the feeling of ego in us, it is easier to follow the path of love.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa"
There lives at least one being who can never change - one being who would be content to devote his whole existence to your happiness - who lives but in your eyes-who breathes but in your smiles, who bears the heavy burden of life itself only for you.
-Charles Dickens
Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar.
-Theodor W. Adorno
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.
-Dalai Lama
Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.
-Mother Teresa
When there is Love, there is no ego; ego dissolves like the dew drops with the sun.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
