Nobody veils you, but yourself.In your path there is no thorn or weed, but yourself.You said: Shall I reach the Beloved or not?Between you and the Beloved there is nobody, but yourself.Awhadoddin KermaniYou do not have to struggle to reach God,but you do have to struggle to tear away the self-created veil that hides Him from you.Paramahansa YoganandaBefore you ask God for what you want,first thank God for whatyou have.Talmud, B'rachot 30bHow long will you keep pounding on an open doorBegging for someone to open it?Rabi'a al-'AdawiyyaI do not desire suffering;yet fool I am,I desire the cause of suffering!ShantidevaWisdom tells me I am nothing.Love tells me I am everything.Between the two my life flows.Nisargadatta MaharajIn the morning, the one who does not understand willconsider what he will do,while the one who understands willconsider what The One will do with him.Ibn 'ata 'illahUntil you become an unbeliever in your own self,you cannot become a believer in God.Shaikh Abu-Saeed Abil-KheirStudent:Sir, if one gave up the I,nothing whatsoever would remain.Ramakrishna:I am not asking you to give up all of the I. You should give up only the "unripe I." The "unripe I" makes one feel: "I am the doer. These are my wife and children. I am a teacher." Renounce this "unripe I" and keep the "ripe I" which will make you feel that you are God's servant, His devotee, and that God is the Doer and you are His instrument.Sri RamakrishnaWorn-out garments are shed by the body,Worn-out bodies are shed by the dweller within the body,New bodies are donned by the Dweller, like garments.Not wounded by weapons, not burned by fire,Not dried by the wind, not wetted by water,Such is the One.Not dried, not wetted, not burned, not wounded,Innermost Essence, everywhere, always,Being of Beings, changeless, eternal, for ever and ever.Bhagavad-GitaWhere are you hurrying to?You will seethe same moon tonightWherever you go!Izumi ShikibuThere is no difference in the destination,the only difference is in the journey.Inayat KhanAll the violence, fear and sufferingthat exists in this worldcomes from grasping at "self".What use is this great monster to you?If you do not let go of the "self",there will never be an end to your suffering.ShantidevaIn the pursuit of learning, every day something is acquired.In the pursuit of Tao, every day something is dropped.Lao TzuCorrect behaviormeans that you areoccupied with commendable activity.Ibn `Ata'There is only one virtueand one sin for a soul on the path:virtue when he is conscious of Godand sin when he is not.Abu Hashim MadaniI see nowthat all creatureshave perfect Enlightenment- but they do not know it.Tathagatasatyameva jayateTruth alone is victoriousMundaka Upanishad 3.1.6source: http://wahiduddin.net/index.htmlbest regards...Todd Caldecotttodd (AT) toddcaldecott (DOT) comwww.toddcaldecott.com Dr.Venu Gopal Rao.T M.D(Ayu) AGASTHYA AYURVEDIC CENTER Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.
