"Every fall goes before a rise;

fall only to rise.

Learn the lesson in fall; become wise;

remove defects and imperfections;

rise up, pure and courageous."

"Once the mind ceases to be restless, being free from thoughts and desires, that moment we are not individuals, but Pure Consciousness which is at once cosmic and super-cosmic in nature. Stillness of the mind awakens in us a consciousness which is full of radiance and ecstasy. Now we know that we are the Truth — the Eternal."

"When we recede into the depths of silence within us we arrive at the true basis of our life. We discover that from this Source all life and manifestation have come forth in their amazing variety and multiplicity. It is at this Source that we discover the eternal fountain of peace and joy." - Swami Ramdas

"When the mind is silent the powers of your inner life reveal themselves. Then you maintain unruffled harmony in the midst of the so-called external conflicts and disturbances. The secret is to let the mind sink into your soul and lose itself. Since the mind disappears and you are established in that consciousness, you are always happy, calm and serene."
