Quotations
World
-Lao Tzu "Lao Tzu"
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.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Dayananda Saraswati"
The "world" is expanding on the Principle of Evolution. This expansion is
not just confined to its time and space but is also taking place at the level of
consciousness; which too has gradually traversed from being an amoeba to a
human being.
-Deep Trivedi
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.
-Ramana Maharshi "Ramana Maharshi"
Change your thoughts, and you change your world.
-Norman Vincent Peale "Norman. V. Peale"
Yesterday I was clever that is why I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise that is why I am changing myself.
-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"
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.
-Ramana Maharshi "Sri Ramana Maharshi"
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
-Bertrand Russell "Bertrand Russell"
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.
-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 171"
