Repeat God's name and sing His glories, and keep holy company; and now and then visit God's devotees and holy men. The mind cannot dwell on God if it is immersed day and night in worldliness, in worldly duties and responsibilities; it is most necessary to go into solitude now and then and think of God. To fix the mind on God is very difficult, in the beginning, unless one practises meditation in solitude. When a tree is young it should be fenced all around; otherwise it may be destroyed by cattle. - Swami Ramkrushna Paramhansa
To take a journey of a thousand miles, you have to begin with the first step from the place where you stand; the romantic description of the journey and the things the body sees on the way and the description of the scenery are of no use unless you lift your foot and take the first step.
Friendship inspires and enriches the life of those who come together…
Humility is the eternal fountain of energy.
You are the prison-house, you are the prisoner and you are the one who imprisons yourself…
Relationship is a mirror into which your inner being gets reflected…
Vimala Thakar (1921 – 2009) – Spiritual Teacher
