The moment you understand yourself as the true Self, you find such peace and bliss that the impressions of the petty enjoyments you experienced before become as ordinary specks of light in front of the brilliant sun.

We can be serene even in the midst of calamities and, by our serenity, make others more tranquil.

Truth 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)

If your heart is beautiful, your face will be beautiful, your life will be beautiful, everything will be beautiful.

Any kind of expectation creates a problem. We should accept, but not expect. Whatever comes, accept it. Whatever goes, accept it. The immediate benefit is that your mind is always peaceful.

Yoga is not only learning to stand on your head but also learning to stand on your feet.

Peace comes not from doing, but from undoing; not from getting, but from letting go.
