You should transfer your attention from failure to success, from worry to calmness, from mental wanderings to concentration, from restlessness to peace, and from peace to the divine bliss within. When you attain this state of Self realization the purpose of your life will have been gloriously fulfilled.
#ParamahansaYogananda
When you came into this world, you cried and everyone else smiled. You should so live your life that when you leave, everyone else will cry, but you will be smiling.
#ParamahansaYogananda
The moment you understand the importance of loving yourself, you will stop hurting others.
#ThichNhatHanh
The sages have said that there are two sorts of purification, external and internal. The purification of the body by water, earth, or other materials is the external purification, as bathing etc. Purification of the mind by truth, and by all the other virtues, is what is called internal purification. Both are necessary. It is not sufficient that a man should be internally pure and externally dirty. When both are not attainable the internal purity is the better, but no one will be a Yogi until he has both.

Nothing is permanent.
Don't stress yourself too much, because no matter how the bad situation is... it will change.
#Buddha
With fools, there is no companionship. Rather than to live with men who are selfish, vain, quarrelsome, and
obstinate, let a man walk alone.
#Buddha
You must always be open to tolerance for all beings, no matter how bad they are, even if they have hurt you, you must let go, to have pure joy.
#Buddha
The blissful man is one
who lives without expectations,
who simply lives - who is not asking that
"Things should be like this."
Who knows how to live fully alert, whatsoever happens.
In life he is aware, in death he is aware.
In happiness he is aware, in unhappiness he is aware.
In success he is aware, in failure he is aware.
He has the secret key.
That secret key is awareness.

A student asks, "Sir, if you're enlightened, why are you stuck in this body?" Guru replies, "This body is a drop in the ocean. I am the ocean, not a drop. Since you identify yourself as a drop, you only see drops around you."
