“A saint is a sinner who never gave up.”

Read a little. Meditate more. Think of God all the time.

Many people excuse their own faults but judge other persons harshly. We should reverse this attitude by excusing others’ shortcomings and by harshly examining our own.

In that power of self-control lies the seed of eternal freedom.

By the practice of meditation, you will find that you are carrying within your heart a portable paradise.

Change your life by changing your thoughts.

Nothing is impossible unless you think it is.

The soul loves to meditate, for in contact with the Spirit lies its greatest joy. If, then you experience mental resistance during meditation, remember that reluctance to meditate comes from the ego; it doesn’t belong to the soul.

The soul’s first adventure is the fight between two ideas: the wish to return to earth in a human form, and the desire to feel the freedom of having no form.

The kingdom of God is just behind the darkness of closed eyes, and the first gate that opens to it is your peace.

Be as simple as you can be; you will be astonished to see how uncomplicated and happy your life can become.

Love cannot be had for the asking; it comes only as a gift from the heart of another.

Through the portals of silence the healing sun of wisdom and peace will shine upon you.

Every tomorrow is determined by every today.

The time will come when mankind will begin to get away from the consciousness of needing so many material things. More security and peace will be found in the simple life.

No one appears on our stage unless the director has placed them there for our benefit.

I don’t want people to think that they can attain realization simply by listening to others or by reading books. They must practice what they read and hear.
