Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
-Lao Tzu "Lao Tzu"
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
It is not that the world has deteriorated today. You perceive the world as you are.
The world has been the same from the very beginning; neither has there been
a virtuous age (Dharma yuga) nor a sin age (Papi yuga). Here, everything has
always been dependent on an individual's perspective with which he looks at it.
-Deep Trivedi
Change your thoughts, and you change your world.
Can the world exist without one to cognise it? Which comes first the being-consciousness or the rising-consciousness? The former is always there and eternal; the latter rises and disappears. It is transient.
You are the centre of that world. That is the world you live in. Now how will you change the world? By changing yourself.
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
You and the world should stop thinking of changing each other. Just allow a third person to do the needful. You know who I mean: God, the only Doer.
