When one has love for God, one doesn't feel any physical attraction to wife, children, relatives and friends. One retains only compassion for them.
RamakrishnaMake your meditation a continuous state of mind. A great worship is going on all the time, so nothing should be neglected or excluded from your constant meditative awareness.
RamakrishnaThe ego is like the root of a banyan tree, you think you have removed it all then one fine morning you see a sprout flourishing again.
RamakrishnaThe breeze of grace is always blowing on you. You have to open the sails and your boat will move forward.
Ramakrishna
