TRUST COMPLETELY IN GOD

 

Sri Ramakrishna -- What are you to do when you are placed in the world? Give up

everything to Him, resign yourself to Him, and there will be no more trouble for

you. Then you will come to know that everything is done by His will.

 

Holy Mother -- If anyone surrenders himself totally at his feet, the Master will

see that everything is set right.

 

Swami Vivekananda -- Stand up for God; let the world go.

 

Buddha -- Surrender the grasping disposition of your selfishness, and you will

attain to that sinless calm state of mind which conveys perfect peace, goodness,

and wisdom.

 

Guru Nanak -- He who gives himself up to His supreme will, wins the goal. No

other action counts in achieving this end.

 

Jesus Christ -- Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or,

'What shall we drink?' or, 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek all these

things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first

his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well.

 

Judaism -- The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want; he makes me lie down in

green pastures. He leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul. He leads

me in paths of righteousness for his names sake. Even though I walk through the

valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and

thy staff, they comfort me.

 

Krishna -- Fixing your heart on Me, you will overcome every difficulty by My

grace; but if from self-conceit you do not listen to Me, you shall perish

utterly.

 

Mohammed -- If you rely upon God as He ought to be relied upon, He will provide

you as He provides the birds: they go out empty and hungry in the morning and

come back big-bellied at eventide.

 

Native American -- All things give thanks to You, O Wakan-Tanka, who are

merciful, and who help us all. We ask all this of You because we know that You

are the only One, and that You have power over all things!

 

Rama -- Do not be overjoyed if you get a fortune, neither should you be dejected

if you lose it. Your mind should be well balanced. I, Rama, am the life of all

souls. Your mind should be fixed on Me alone.

 

Sankara -- I know no Mantra, Yantra, or Stotra; I know no invocation or

contemplation; I know no stories in your praise; I know not Mudras, not even how

to cry out; I simply know that to run to you, Mother, destroys all distress.

 

Vedas -- Children pursue outer pleasures and fall into the net of widespread

death; but calm souls, having known what is unshakable Immortality, do not covet

any uncertain thing in this world.

 

Zoroaster -- Trust in God and do the Right.
