Quotations
God
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
-Mother Teresa
To work without attachment is to work without the expectation of reward or fear of any punishment in this world or the next. Work so done is a means to the end, and God is the end.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
It is true that in each particle of the existence, there is a reflection of God. But
then it is difficult to understand, why temples exist separately?
-Deep Trivedi
Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God.
-Diana Robinson
What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

God’s purpose in creating the universe was to feel happiness when He saw the purpose of goodness fulfilled in the Heavenly Kingdom, which the whole of Creation, including man, could have established.
-Scriptures "Divine Principle I.1.3.1"
Any fool can count the seeds in an apple. Only God can count all the apples in one seed.
-Robert H. Schuller
Even the gods love jokes.
