The seeker of God is the real lover of vidya, unchangeable truth; all else is avidya, relative knowledge.
Paramahansa YoganandaWhen you exercise your will power you release the power of life energy - not when you merely wish passively to be able to obtain an objective.
Paramahansa YoganandaThose who look at the surface of the sea must behold the birth and death of the waves, but those who seek the depths of the ocean behold one indivisible mass of water. Similarly, those who acknowledge "life" and "death" are tossed by sorrow, while those who live in the illimitable superconsciousness behold and feel the One Ineffable Bliss.
