When you share your misery, it will not diminish. When you fail to share your joy, it diminishes. Share your problems only with the Divine, not with anyone else, as that will only increase the problems. Share your joy with everyone. Listen to others; yet do not listen. If your mind gets stuck in their problems, not only are they miserable, but you also become miserable.
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarWith charity, money is purified. By service, our actions are purified. With music, our emotions are purified and with knowledge our intellect is purified.
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarFoolishness is giving up without any effort or not giving up after putting in all your effort. Secret of freedom is putting all your effort and giving up!
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarA child does not try to know the mother, it simply has faith in her. In the same way, having faith in the Divine is the source of the greatest strength.
