We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
-Mother Teresa
Quotations
God
All things belong to God, as do all places. I am forever a sacrifice to God.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
God is to be worshipped as the one beloved, dearer than everything in this and next life.
-Swami Vivekananda
The One who, himself without colour, by the manifold application of his power distributes many colours in his hidden purpose, and into whom, it’s end and it’s beginning, the whole world dissolves - He is God!
- Upanishads "Svestasvatara Upanishad 4.1"
Act always from a sense of common humanity, and let God judge if it be charity.
-Robert Brault "Robert Brault"
I consider him to be a true believer of God, who no matter what happens...has
the capacity to cheerfully accept it there and then, as the will of God.
-Deep Trivedi
In this world, there are only two kinds of people who can be happy and successful.
One, who believe that God is almighty...then whatever good - bad, sin - virtue,
all is happening as per his will; the matter ends. Second, who believe that God
doesn't exist at all and take up all their responsibilities by themselves, again the
matter ends. But since all of us are stuck hanging between the two, we end up
being sad and unsuccessful.
-Deep Trivedi
Your idol is shattered in the dust to prove that God's dust is greater than your idol.
-Rabindranath Tagore
The concept of "God" has come into existence because of fear. ‘Fear’ is the
offspring of insecurity and desire... The interesting part is, you don't need either
of these after death.
-Deep Trivedi
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
-Galileo Galilei
