He who can resign himself to the will of the Almighty with simple faith and guileless love realizes the Lord very quickly. (Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa)
It is so wonderful to be in tune with God and to trust in him implicitly being content wherever He places you and whatever He makes of you, accepting all with humility and devotion. (Paramahansa Yogananda)
Faith can accomplish anything. Doubt can destroy everything (Paramahansa Yogananda)
He who has faith, has all. He who lack faith, lacks all. (Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa)
As you smell the fragrance of a flower while handling it or the smell of sandalwood while rubbing it against a stone, so you obtain spiritual awakening by constant thinking of God. If you become desireless you can realise Him right now.'
"Our best work is done, our greatest influence is exerted, when we are without thought of self.... Let us open ourselves to the one Divine Actor, and let Him act, and do nothing ourselves.... Be perfectly resigned, perfectly unconcerned; then alone can you do any true work.... Put out self, loose it, forget it; just let God work, it is His business. We have nothing to do but stand aside and let God work. The more we go away, the more God Comes in. Get rid of the little "I", and let only the great "I" live.... Desire nothing; think of God and look for no return. It is the desireless who bring results."-- (Both from Sri Sarada Devi)
Real love arises only when all attachments to individuals, objects, and personal interests drop away. Then life becomes a beautiful play. (Ammachi)
The secret is that the union with God (Yoga) can never happen unless the mind is rendered absolutely calm, whatever be the "path" you follow for God-realization (Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa)
