If your Lord Supreme requests you to do something, rest assured he has already given you the capacity - even more than necessary - long before you actually need it.
Sri ChinmoyDo you want to change the world? Then change yourself first. Do you want to change yourself? Then remain completely silent inside the silence-sea.
Sri ChinmoyPeace is something spontaneous; it is something that unites us. Peace is something that we have to spread. But unless and until we have peace deep within us, we can never hope to have peace in the outer world.
Sri ChinmoyBe universal in your love. You will see the universe to be the picture of your own being.
Sri ChinmoyUnless and until we have peace deep within us, we can never hope to have peace in the outer world. You and I create the world by the vibrations that we offer to it. If we can invoke peace and then offer it to somebody else, we will see how peace expands from one to two persons, and gradually to the world at large. Peace will come about in the world from the perfection of individuals. If you have peace, I have peace, he has peace, and she has peace, then automatically universal peace will dawn.
