Vacuity, tranquillity, mellowness, quietness and taking no action characterise things of the universe at peace and represent the ultimate Tao and virtue. Therefore abide in them.

universe along with the limited progress of life.
-Deep Trivedi
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
-Albert Einstein
Each man is a microcosm of the universe. Your body is made of all the elements of the world. Nature supplied all the ingredients that make your body, which means that the universe made you by donating itself. You could accurately say that you are a small walking universe that can move, whereas the cosmic universe is stationary.
-Sun Myung Moon "Sun Myung Moon"
We too should make ourselves empty, that the great soul of the universe may fill us with its breath.

All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
-Swami Vivekananda "Swami Vivekananda"
The material universe exists only in the mind.

If you seek to understand the whole universe you will understand nothing at all but seek to understand yourself and you will understand the whole universe.
