Everything begins in the mind. If you want to see clearly, you need clear vision.
Swami Satchidananda[T]he period between four and six in the morning is called the Brahmamuhurta, the Brahmic time, or divine period, and is a very sacred time to meditate. (140)
Swami SatchidanandaTruth is the same always. Whoever ponders it will get the same answer. Buddha got it. Patanjali got it. Jesus got it. Mohammed got it. The answer is the same, but the method of working it out may vary this way or that. (115)
Swami SatchidanandaDo you want to know the secret of life? If you want to have everything, don’t want anything. Everything will run after you.
Swami SatchidanandaNot only does charity begin at home. Everything begins at home, including spirituality.
Swami SatchidanandaDevotion gradually progresses to higher levels. . . . One type goes to God and asks Him to remove his suffering. Another one will ask for money or material things. A third will request liberation or release from his bondage. And the fourth will not ask for anything. He will just enjoy praying and praising his Lord. That is the highest form of prayer. (Beyond Word, 119)
