The impersonal aspect [of God] (Nirakara, Nirguna) is called Brahman, or 'unknowable' by Herbert Spencer, 'will' by Schopenhauer, Absolute Noumenon by some 'substance' by Spinoza. The personal aspect (Sakara) of that Being is termed 'Ishvara' or Allah, Hari, Jehova, Father in Heaven, Buddha, Siva, etc. Just as vapour or steam is formless, so also God is formless in His unmanifested or transcendental state.
SivanandaForget like a child any injury done by somebody immediately. Never keep it in the heart. It kindles hatred.
SivanandaThe inward battle--against our mind, our wounds, and the residues of the past--is more terrible than outward battle.
