Quotations
Life
Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
-Søren Kierkegaard

-Sri Aurobindo
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Of winter’s lifeless world each tree now seems a perfect part; Yet each one holds summer’s secret deep down within its heart.

-Scriptures "Uttaradhyayana Sutra 10.34"
Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
-Deep Trivedi
Life only begins to be an adventure when we cease living it for ourselves.
