Your success in life does not altogether depend on ability and training; it also depends on your determination to grasp opportunities that are presented to you.
Paramahansa YoganandaBirths and deaths are inevitable for man only during the state of ignorance in which he thinks he is the body and cannot exist without it. Only the man who will not seek the awakening of wisdom must suffer the nightmares and delusive dreams of births and deaths and the fanciful miseries and limitations attending them. (gt)
Paramahansa YoganandaWhen we serve others, we serve ourselves. Do not think, I will help others - think rather, I will help my own, my world, because I cannot otherwise be happy.
