For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist, it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart — then no problem.

This is what the real role of religion is..."

Where there 'is', thus, "The Joy of Life"."

His mystic divine vision now, is for one and all, to see, to drink in and feel sweet ecstasy Man then dances singing thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks my dear lord, for revealing to me You and I can be one in sweet godly seeing.

Don't eat this. Don't drink that. Don't smoke. Don't watch that. This is what you keep hearing from your spiritual teacher. There is no rapture; no ecstasy only dos and don'ts. Discriminatory restraint of senses is not asceticism. The purpose is not to subjugate the body We need to rein the senses to be faithful allies on our journey for two compelling reasons: first, the body is our vehicle, and we need to keep it healthy strong and resilient so that it can carry us steadily and safely to the summit of consciousness. Second, training the senses strengthens the will. A strong will is required to move out of the Valley of Death which is our physical world. An untrained will becomes self-will, an enemy But a trained will is a powerful ally"

If, when a man comes to die, his vital force passes upward and out through this nerve, he attains immortality; but if his vital force passes out through another nerve, he goes to one or another plane of mortal existence and remains subject to birth and death."

KATHA UPANISHAD –"Who sends the mind to wander afar? Who first drives life to start on its journey? Who impels us to utter these words? Who is the Spirit behind the eye and the ear? It is the ear of the ear, the eye of the eye, and the Word of words, the mind of mind, and the life of life. Those who follow wisdom pass beyond and, on leaving this world, become immortal.

KISHORE ASTHANA –"I donned the saffron robe I roamed here and there I begged from door to door And didn't get anywhere I counted a million beads I recited every prayer I read all the books And didn't get anywhere I discussed God all the time And debated religions Threadbare I fasted days on end And didn't get anywhere Then wisdom smiled on me one day And said to me in its own calm way AU these are traps of your mind Of one or another kind Just go inside if you want to find What is it that makes you blind To what is illusion and what is true To the false and the real you) It spoke of power and it spoke of pelf It spoke of mind, it spoke of self It spoke of the real; It spoke of show. It spoke of what I needed to know Now I fast not, nor do I pray I go nowhere but travel in a way "And find the Truth, as wisdom did say Inside myself, at work and play. It is not holy in the worldly sense It needs not knowledge, smoke, incense It is not demanding of ritual and fast It wants nothing that will not last It's AU-That-Is', never surpassed My future, my present and my past."

KISHORE ASTHANA –"I have waited long/ In this darkened place/ But I sleep not/ lest I miss/ Those dainty steps/ that beloved face I wait, and waiting in me/ My music sleeps/ Its strings wet with unshed tears/ Its flutes but exhausted reeds The dancing bells have closed their eyes/ And arm in arm they lie aside/ But I wait with bated breath/ For I am sure you said 'tonight' My song that was, is now a hymn/ Even the grapes are now old wine/ This bed alas, an unfulfilled altar/ But the dawn is not yet,/ Beloved mine."

LOUISE L HAY –"What are you thinking right now? If...your thoughts shape your life, would you want what you were just thinking right now to become true for you? If it's a thought of worry or anger or hurt or revenge or fear, how do you think this thought will not come back to you?... Imagine yourself in line at a...buffet in a luxurious hotel, where instead of dishes of food, there are dishes of thoughts. You get to choose any and all the thoughts you wish. These thoughts will create your future experiences. Now, if you choose . thoughts that will create problems and pain, that's I rather foolish. It's like choosing food that always makes you ill... It's the same with thoughts. Let us stay away from thoughts that create problems and pain... I have never understood the importance of having children memorise battle dates... Instead, we could teach them important subjects such as How the Mind Works, How to Handle Finances, How to be a Parent, How to Create Good Relationships... Can you imagine what a whole generation of adults would belike if they had I been taught these subjects in school?... We would have happy people who feel good about themselves. We would have people who are comfortable financially and who enrich the economy by investing their money wisely."

LYANIA VANZANT –" If I am afraid to take a chance, I'll take it anyway. If I have done thingsthat didn't work out well, or that didn't make me feel good, I will do something else. I must do something different if I want something different to happen. I am getting better and better.

LYANIA VANZANT –" Life is like a puzzle. Sometimes the pieces fall apart, but they can be put back together. There are pieces from books, pieces of songs, and pieces of things that have happened to you. All the pieces of your life affect you, but they are not you."

Resolve my problems as you so please. There is no power, no strength, but in you."

PALLAVI AIYAR –"As we walked away from the stupa site and towards the abbot's living quarters, we passed a series of small pagodas and shrines. A shiny, large image of the laughing Buddha caught my attention. Somehow the elegantly angular, tranquil Buddha sporting a top knot, as we knew him in India, had in China translated into a bald, fat and jolly being. Yin Le noticed-my interest.

PSALM –"Where can I go from Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence? If I make my bed in the depths, You are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast."

RAJAN –"In this vastness there is place for space and much more. In this eternity there is place for time and the chimes of its measure, In the depth of the deep there is space for the light to enter but not the door to escape. In the roaming mind, there is space for the quietude by tapas of fortitude. In the emerald blue silence there is space for awareful existence of the fullness of ananda. In awareness there is the .melody of the music of the spheres pulsating with cosmic life — heard only in silence. In consciousness, you and I are nowhere or everywhere vibrant in the soft whisper of the fathomless silence, if only we listen."

RICHARD CARLSON –"These days, it seems that almost all of us are too serious... Understand the link between your expectations and your frustration level. Whenever you expect something to be a certain way and it isn't, you're upset and you suffer. But when you let go of your expectations, when you accept life as it is, you're free. To hold on is to be serious and uptight. To let go is to lighten up."

It evoked that."

SATHYA SAI BABD –"To a worldly man, a God-intoxicated person will appear mad and he will laugh at him. But to the God-intoxicated man, the worldly appear insane, foolish, misled, blind."

SENECA –"Many have gone through life merely accumulating the instruments of life. Consider individuals, survey men in general: there is none whose life does not look forward to the morrow. 'What harm is there in this?' you ask. Infinite harm; for such persons do not live, but are preparing to live. They postpone everything. While we are postponing, life speeds by."

SHAIKH ABU SAEED ABIL KHEIR –"Let deep longing dwell in your heart,/ never give up, never lose hope."

SHAKTI GAWAIN –"We always attract into our lives whatever we think about the most, believe in most strongly expect on the deepest levels, and/or imagine most vividly If we are basically positive in attitude, expecting and envisioning pleasure, satisfaction and happiness, we will attract and create people, situations, and events which confirm to our positive expectations. So the more positive energy we put into imagining what we want, the more it begins to manifest in our lives."

SIMI BAJAJ –"Her love is unconditional and pure Her presence sweet, soft and calm Her heart is full of deep emotions Her touch, like a soothing balm She is the anchor of wavering ships Sailing on the rough waters of life She slips with ease into the role of a mother After perfecting those of daughter and companion If only the people of this world Treated Mother Earth with the same love As that of their own mother This world would be like heaven above."

SOGYAL RINPOCHE –"May I be a protector to those without protection A leader for those who journey And a boat, a bridge, a passage For those desiring the further shore. May the pain of every living creature Be completely cleared away May i be the doctor, the medicine And may i be the nurse For all the sick beings in the world Until everyone is healed. Just like space And the great elements such as earth, May I always support the life Of all boundless creatures. And until they pass away from pain May I also be a source of life for all the realms of varied beings That reach unto the ends of space."

SRI GURU GRANTH SAHIB –"The mind obtains bliss and eternal peace, meeting with the Deep and Profound Lord."

SRI GURU GRANTH SAHIB –"The mind obtains bliss and eternal peace, meeting with the Deep and Profound Lord."

SRI RAMAKRISHNA –"God has created the world in play; as it was, This is called Mahamaya, the Great Illusion. Therefore, one must take refuge in the Divine Mother, the Cosmic Power itself. It is She who has bound us with the shackles of illusion. The realisation of God is possible only when those shackles are severed."

SRI RAMAKRISHNA –"Unless the mind becomes steady there cannot be yoga. It is the wind of worldliness that always disturbs the mind, which may be likened to a candle-flame. If that flame does not move at all, then one is said to have attained yoga."

SRI SATHYA SAI BABA –"Sorrows and disasters are like the clouds that flit across the sky; they cannot injure the blue depths of space. Your duty is just to strive on from this very moment. Do not vacillate or postpone. Who knows when death knocks? May be, he may knock this very night, this very moment; therefore, do not delay Do you postpone for tomorrow the dinner of this day! Feed the spirit as scrupulously as you now feed the body."

SRI SATHYA SAI BABA –"The same person has come to Me seeking success at the examination, then a job, then a father-in-law, then a child, then a rise in the salary a transfer in a cheaper place and a seat in the Medical College for his son — a never-ending series of wants, until at last he comes seeking My Grace for an end to worldly pursuits and for initiation into the path of spirituality."

SRI SRI RAVI SHANKAR –"When we feel high we have no problems. The problem comes when we feel low. No one wants to feel low. When one feels low, then the more one tries to feel high, the more the low feelings persist. This seems to be the biggest problem... Don't simply follow your feelings. What is the nature of your feelings? When you feel clear in the mind, then naturally you have good feelings. When you are unclear in the mind, then you don't feel good, your mind also is not clear. Any decision that you take when your mind is unclear is not going to be good for you. Instead of that, base it on just the clarity of your mind."

SRIMAD BHAGAVATAM –"Truly wise is he who is unstirred by praise or blame, by love or hatred. He is not moved by the opposites of life. Verily does he delight in the blissful Self."

ST SIMEON –"From the first, God created two worlds— the visible and the invisible, and has made a king to reign covers the visible who bears within himself the characteristic features of both worlds — one in his visible half and the other in his invisible half — in his soul and his body Two suns shine in these worlds, one visible and another, intellectual. In the visible world of the senses there is the sun, and in the invisible world of the intellect there is God, who is and is called the sun of truth. The physical world and everything in it are illumined and enlightened by the sun of truth in the intellect. Moreover, physical things are illumined by the physical sun, and . things of the intellect by the sun of the intellect separately from one another, for they are not mixed with or merged into one another — neither the physical with the intellectual nor the intellectual with the physical."

STELLA KRAMRISCH –"The oneness of all creation is expressed in early Buddhist sculpture by a gentle harmony and similarity of individual shapes, which characterise every object but are more than a r picture of their exterior. I Life itself has assumed I the shape of artistic form. The Indian understands life as growth. He does not depict the shapes of nature but nature itself. Earth's life-blood streams; through the members of the figures and gives them form according to the celerity of its circulation, which is gently flowing, soft and equipoise at Bharhut (Sanchi). The forms have not yet separated themselves from mother earth, which nourished them and gives them the contemplative life. Each relief is first of all a picture of a spiritual state, and secondary to it, it is the representation of a particular theme."

STEPHEN JOHNSON –"Water is the lifeblood of our bodies, our economy, our nation and our well-being."

STEPHEN R COVEY –"While we are free to choose our actions, we are not free to choose the consequences of our actions."

SVETASVATARA UPANISHAD –"Meditate upon Him and transcend physical consciousness. Thus will you reach union with the Lord of the Universe?

SWAMI NIRMALANANDA GIRI –"The Divine Light is the essence of Om, the Life-Giving Word, the Pranava. Then at the end of life, having prepared himself by this practice, sitting in meditation the yogi ascends upward from the body into the realm of immortality."

SWAMI NITYASWARUPANANDA –"An unperturbed person remains so because his mind is ever calm and tranquil, even in the midst of activities, owing to the absence of any egoistic feeling which alone is the source of distraction."

SWAMI NITYASWARUPANANDA –"In the dark of night a rope is mistaken for a snake. The rope does not really become a snake; it has no other reality than the rope itself. In the same way this universe has no real existence. It is the Self: Pure Consciousness and Supreme Bliss, in which this universe, through ignorance, is seen to exist. Consciousness, which is the substratum of the universe, remains eternally pure and unaffected. We are that Consciousness. Therefore, we must cease identifying ourselves with the superimposed universe, and thus we shall be happy."

SWAMI PRABHUPADA –"The person in material consciousness is convinced by false ego that he is the doer of everything. He does not know that the mechanism of body is produced by material nature, which works under the supervision of the Supreme Lord. He takes credit for doing everything independently, and that I is the symptom of his nescience. He is factually bewildered by the false ego, which makes him forget his eternal relationship with the Lord."

SWAMI RAM TIRTHA –"The trees of the wood are my next of kins, And the rocks alive with what beats in me; The clay is my flesh, and the fox my skin, I am fierce with gadfly and sweet with the bee, The flower is naught but the bloom of my love, And the waters run down in the tune I dream. The sun is my flower hung up above, I flash with the lightning, with falcons scream, I cannot die though forever death weaves back and forth in the warp of me. I was never born yet my births of breath are as many as waves on the sleepless Sea. My breath doth make the flowers fragrant, My eyebeams cause the Suns bright light, The sunset mirrors my cheeks rose blushes My aching love holds stars so tight Sweet streams and rivers my veins and arteries. My beauteous hair the fresh green trees. What giant strength! My bones are mountains, O, joy! The fairy world my bride, Nay, talk no difference, wonder of wonders, Myself the bridegroom, I the bride."

SWAMI RAMDAS –"In the marvellous lila of the Lord, it is evident that the consciousness of ego is what has made man fall from his supreme plane of benediction and peace."

SWAMI SIVANANDA –"Thought is life. What you think, that you are. Your thought creates your environment. Your thoughts constitute your world. If you entertain healthy thoughts, you can keep good health. If you hold on to sickly thoughts in the mind, you can never expect good health, beauty and harmony Remember that the body is a product of the mind and is under the control of mind."

SWAMI SUKHABODHANANDA –"There was a noble tailor who had become a great sage. The king came to pay his respects and presented him with a pair of golden scissors encrusted with diamonds. But the sage refused to accept it. "What can I give you that can be of use to you": The tailor said, "Give me a needle?" The reason is symbolic. The scissor cuts and divides. But the needle sews two pieces together. Our minds are like scissors that cut and divide."

SWAMI VENKATESANANDA –"Everything in the universe is filled with the same energy, with the same intelligence, the same consciousness. Thus, the objects that we use in our life, the actions that we do with this body, the persons to whom our actions are directed, are nothing but the manifestations of God. This is a remarkable truth, which, until it becomes a rea
