Quotations
God
If there is a God, atheism must seem to Him as less of an insult than religion.
-Edmond De Goncourt
God first created light, all men are born out of it. The whole world came out of a single spark; who is good and who is bad? The Creator is in the creation, and the creation in the Creator, He is everywhere…He who surrenders to Him gets to know Him. God is invisible, He cannot be seen. The Guru has granted me this sweet gift. My doubts are dispelled. I have seen the Pure with my own eyes.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Hargobind Singh"
Listen to God with a broken heart. He is not only the doctor who mends it, but also the father who wipes away the tears.
