Self-inquiry is the process and the goal also. ‘I am’ is the goal and the final reality. To hold to it with effort is self-inquiry. When spontaneous and natural it is realisation.
-Ramana Maharshi

God does not test you because he knows you completely - your past, present and future.

What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness?
-John Steinbeck
A good marriage is where both people feel like they're getting the better end of the deal.
Considering only your belief system to be true, you have been supporting it
firmly for ages. But why don't you understand that without taking constructive
criticism in your stride, it is impossible to tread the right path as per the need
of time. It is the law of human consciousness that the more one is open to his
own criticism, the more refined he gets. Only because of their own fanaticism,
the Muslim brothers all over the world are practically deprived of the immense
compassion of "intelligent" people.
-Deep Trivedi
Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.
Human intelligence lies in making such choices that whatever he desires or
attains out of them...the end result should only be happiness.
-Deep Trivedi
There is the solitude of suffering, when you go through darkness that is lonely, intense, and terrible. Words become powerless to express your pain; what others hear from your words is so distant and different from what you are actually suffering.
- John O'donohue
