Once we surrender our mind to Divine Grace completely, we will be taken care of in every way.

-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"

To understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still.

-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"

The person who knows the functioning of 'his' own mind, can easily understand everyone else's as well, which is why he is able to reign over them. All our life, we unnecessarily engage ourselves in understanding others' minds instead of our own.

-Deep Trivedi

Can't you keep the soil of your mind firm? Yes you can, if you shift your focus from the pains and pleasures of life to your "being" and keep it steadfast there.

-Deep Trivedi

Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?

-Adi Shankara "Adi Shankaracharya"

Your 'mind' is actually the sum-total of vibrations. So, it will always be beyond the reach of science. And since you experience all your pains and pleasures also on the screen of mind, science can never reveal the amount of pains and miseries hidden in you or where does it come from. Neither will it ever succeed in surgically removing those miseries from your body.

-Deep Trivedi

On the screen of your mind, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Then that reaction yields thousands of sub-reactions by itself. Therefore, think thousand times before going against your mind.

-Deep Trivedi

No mind, no form, I only exist; Now ceased all will and thought. The final end of the Nature’s dance; I am it whom I have sought. A realm of bliss bare, ultimate, beyond both knower and known. A rest immense I enjoy at last; I face the one alone. I have crossed the secret ways of life; I have become the Goal. The Truth immutable is revealed; I am the way, the God-Soul. My spirit aware of all the heights, I am mute in the core of the Sun. I barter nothing with time and deeds; my cosmic play is done.

-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"

Brain understands the things by dissecting them because all it knows is the tangible objects. But mind does not recognize the tangible objects differently; it only understands the vibrations and their intensities and depths. It is only due to our inability to establish a mutual communication between the two, that we all are total failures.

-Deep Trivedi

Any physical inhibition is of no value. Valuable is the intelligence which can transform your mind.

-Deep Trivedi
