Burnt offerings, sacred feasts, intense meditations, puja and taking millions of cleansing baths at sacred shrines of pilgrimage: the merits of all these can be obtained by enshrining Lord within your heart for a fraction of a second.
For what can be known about God is plain to all, because God is plain to all, because God has shown it to them. Ever since creation of the world His invisible nature, namely His eternal power has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made.
Everyone has in him something divine, something his own, a chance of perfection and strength in however small a sphere which God offers him to take or refuse. The task is to find it, develop it and use it.
God brings men into deep waters, not to drown them, but to cleanse them.
-James H. Aughey
Some call on the Lord, “Rama”, some cry, “Khuda”, Some bow to Him as Gosain, some as Allah; He is called the Ground of Grounds and also the Bountiful, The Compassionate One and Gracious.
The young do not need God, and the old cannot find Him.
-Mignon McLaughlin

Men take care not to make women weep, for God counts their tears.
-Thomas S. Monson
If you knew who walked beside you at all times, on the path that you have chosen, you could never experience fear or doubt again.
-Wayne W. Dyer
Devotion to God’s Name is my lamp; In this lamp is poured the oil of suffering. The light of realisation burns away this oil…Vast loads of firewood are reduced to ashes by a tiny spark of fire.
God often visits us, but most of the time we are not at home.
-Joseph Roux
