Paramahansa YoganandaEvery night in sleep God takes away all your troubles to show you that you are not a mortal being; you are spirit.
Paramahansa YoganandaThe way to liberation lies through this realization of the Self, by God-communion and by remaining in this God-aware state of the soul while performing dutiful actions. Any individual can reach this supreme actionless state by the renunciation of all fruits of actions: performing all dutiful acts without harbouring in his heart any likes and dislikes, possessing no material desires, and feeling God, not the ego, as the Doer of all actions.
Paramahansa YoganandaAs you find your soul-reservoir of peace, less and less controversy will be able to afflict your life.
Paramahansa YoganandaIt is a great mistake to regard a certain object as pleasurable in itself and to store the idea of it in the mind in hope of fulfilling a want by its actual presence in the future.
