Mind
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
“Make your offering,” said the Master. “As you make it be pleased in mind. Make your mind completely calm and contented. Focus and fill the offering-mind with the giving. From this secure position you can be free from ill will.”
-Sutta Nipata "Sutta Nipata 506"
To understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
Your focus is always on everything else, but you. The biggest proof is, even in
dreams, rarely any of you would have seen your own face. Indeed, it is sad that
not only in your conscious mind but even in your unconscious mind, your focus
is only on others.
-Deep Trivedi
Mind is consciousness, which has limitations. We are originally unlimited and perfect. Later on we take on limitations and become the mind…There is no mind to control if you realise the self. The mind having vanished, the self shines forth.
-Ramana Maharshi "Ramana Maharshi"
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
-Aristotle "Aristotle"
Good is that which elevates the mind and evil is that which degrades the mind. Social virtue and vice are temporal entities; they have nothing to do with your relationship with the Supreme.
-A Spiritual Leader "Shri Shri Anandamurti"
Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched
on and off at a fixed time regularly, whereas for mind, the dawn is when you
wake up. Understand this difference between man and machine and save your
life from becoming mechanical.
-Deep Trivedi
Any physical inhibition is of no value. Valuable is the intelligence which can
transform 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"
