✨ Words of Wisdom

“This Self is never born nor does it ever perish; nor having come into existence will it again cease to be. It is birthless, eternal, changeless, ever-same (unaffected by the usual processes associated with time). It is not slain when the body is killed.”

— God Talks with Arjuna by Paramahansa Yogananda; Chapter 2

“As it is common practice for a human being during a lifetime to change his attire many times, so it is a habit of the eternal soul, during its wanderings on the path of delusion and mortal desires, to cast off karma-worn bodies for new ones. As a person is glad to throw away worn-out, useless clothes for new garments, so should an individual rejoice and feel it just as natural to change a disease-torn or karmically outdated body for a new one.”

— God Talks with Arjuna by Paramahansa Yogananda; Chapter 2, Verse 22

“The soul is self-born, with inherent bliss-producing qualities. Contentment, ever new joy, omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence are not acquired qualities, but are an integral part of the soul. Hence, the devotee who is engrossed in these soul qualities is enjoying real lasting happiness belonging to his own true Self.”

— God Talks with Arjuna by Paramahansa Yogananda; Chapter 2, Verse 5

“The test of man’s wisdom is his equanimity. Little stones that are pelted into the lake of consciousness should not throw the whole lake into commotion.”

— God Talks with Arjuna by Paramahansa Yogananda; Chapter 2, Verse 37

“The word yoga signifies “union,” mergence. When the soul of man unites with the Spirit, the union is described as yoga. This yoga is the goal of every truth-seeker. Anyone who practises an effective technique to attain this supreme union is a yogi.”

— God Talks with Arjuna by Paramahansa Yogananda; Chapter 2, Verse 39

“No material or spiritual activities performed with attachment (mental unevenness) can produce lasting happiness. The bhogi, or the man of attachment, reaps unhappiness. A yogi, whether engaged or not in outer activities, feels the unending ever new joy of Spirit.”
