Words of Wisdom - by Swami Ramakrishnananda
"Don't think you are special; realize you are unique... "
"Only he who is willing to die is capable of love... "
"An authentic religious person is not he who has found God, but he who never abandons his search... "
"Live from the depths' stillness; the waves only move on the surface."
"I do not offer any solution in the form of a technique, mantra, method or doctrine. Something like that could be your solution only if the problem was not you."
"Do not get angry with someone who offends you... that may be the moment he needs you the most... "
"Enlightenment is to realize the only thing you can really be."
"To be the Self is not to think that you are the Self... but to be It..."
"According to my understanding, Hinduism does not preach belief in God's existence, but doubt about our existence as separate entities from the Whole... "
"Real religion is the discovery of your authentic nature...it is your discovery of your own self...Only when you become your own discovery, will you be able to consider yourself a religious being..."
"Listening is more important than speaking; otherwise, God would have given us two mouths and only one ear ..."
"It takes us two years to learn to speak...To be silent-the rest of our lives."
"In order to meditate, the best place is here and the most significant moment is now..."
"Only when you stop trying to live your life your way, can Life live its way through you... "
"My love for religion is what has kept me away from religions... "
"You are all you need... "
"Only when you give up your love for power, will you discover the power of love".
"Religion is to seek that which you have never lost... It is to find that which has always been there... It is to stop being what you have never been... It is to meet anew the one who has never left... It is to return to that place you have never departed from... It is to return. "
"I don't suggest Sanatana-dharma as best solution of all, but as the only message that exposes us humans, and our egoism, as the problem."
"An artist is an enlightened being who paints, dances, or sings... an enlightened being is an artist who does not need to do anything..."
"Religion is not about belief or faith in some supernatural power, but about the experience of what is, as it is."
"You ask me: 'where is God? Has anyone seen him?' Well, I'll tell you that God has been seen only by those who have loved, and that God is present where there is love."
"Love opens all doors; attachment makes sure to close them."
"Only he who is willing to die is capable of love... "
