Success is not rightly measured by the worldly standards of wealth, prestige and power. None of these bestow happiness unless they are rightly used. To use them rightly one must possess wisdom and love for God and man.
Paramahansa YoganandaNothing may truly be said to be a miracle except in the profound sense that everything is a miracle.
Paramahansa YoganandaWhy forgive one who wrongs you? Because if you angrily strike back you misrepresent your own divine soul nature-you are no better than your offender. But if you manifest spiritual strength you are blessed, and the power of your righteous behavior will also help the other person to overcome his misunderstanding.
Paramahansa YoganandaYou do not have to struggle to reach God, but you do have to struggle to tear away the self-created veil that hides him from you
