In truth, you are spirit. The body has been projected by the mind, which itself originates from Spirit.

The Sage has no thinking mind and therefore there are no ‘others’ for him.

The deeply learned ones know the mind as the directly expressed meaning of the supreme knowledge. The heart is the meaning aimed at. The Supreme is none other than the heart.

The life of action need not be renounced. If you meditate for an hour or two every day you can then carry on with your duties. If you meditate in the right manner then the current of mind induced will continue to flow even in the midst of your work.

Because truth is exceedingly subtle and serene, the bliss of the Self can manifest only in a mind rendered subtle and steady by assiduous meditation.

Mind is a wonderful force inherent in the Self.

The inquiry "who am I" turns the mind introvert and makes it calm.

Peace is for the purification of one's mind. Power is for the growth of the community. Having established the community with power, one should then establish supreme peace.

Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind.

Mind is but a poor reflection of the radiant Heart.

When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.

Pleasure and pain are only aspects of the mind. Our essential nature is happiness

Our identification with the mind and body is the chief reason for our failure to know our self as we truly are.

Meditation applies the brakes to the mind.

Whatever is done lovingly, with righteous purity and with peace of mind, is a good action. Everything which is done with the stain of desire and with agitation filling the mind is classified as a bad action.

When the mind is left without anything to cling to, it becomes still.

The mind is only a bundle of thoughts. The thoughts have their root in the I-thought. Whoever investigates the True "I" enjoys the stillness of bliss.

The normal self is the mind. The mind is with limitations. But pure Consciousness is beyond limitations, and is reached by investigation into the "I."

Calmness is the criterion of spiritual progress. Plunge the purified mind into the Heart. Then the work is over.

The pure mind is itself Brahman; it therefore follows that Brahman is not other than the mind of the sage.

When one makes the mind stick to one thought, the mind becomes rock-steady and the energy is conserved.

Peace can reign only where there is no disturbance, and disturbance is due to thoughts that arise in the mind.

The fact is that the mind is only a bundle of thoughts. The mind is fattened by new thoughts rising up. Therefore it is foolish to attempt to kill the mind by means of the mind. The only way of doing it is to find its source and hold on to it. The mind will then fade away of its own accord.

God illumines the mind and shines within it. One cannot know God by means of the mind. One can but turn the mind inwards and merge it in God.

Peace is your natural state. It is the mind that obstructs the natural state.

There is nothing wrong with God's creation. Mystery and Suffering only exist in the mind.

You have to ask yourself the question 'Who am I?' This investigation will lead in the end to the discovery of something within you which is behind the mind. Solve that great problem and you will solve all other problems.

Apart from thought, there is no independent entity called "world." Just as the spider emits the thread (of the web) out of itself and then withdraws it, likewise, the mind projects the world out of itself and then withdraws it back into itself.

Bliss is a thing which is always there and is not something which comes and goes. That which comes and goes is a creation of the mind.

Of all the thoughts that rise in the mind, the thought 'I' is the first thought.

If one's mind has peace, the whole world will appear peaceful.

Your true nature is that of infinite spirit. The feeling of limitation is the work of the mind.

He who has realized the Self in the Heart has transcended the dualities and is never perplexed.

It is said that the I-activity is the root of all activities. From where the I-thought emerges, that in short is the heart.

In the Heart's cavity, the sole Brahman as an ever-persisting 'I' shines direct in the form of the Self. Into the Heart enter thyself, with mind in search or in deeper plunge. Or by restraint of life-movement be firmly poised in the Self.

Love is verily the heart of all religions.

This perception of division between the seer and the object that is seen, is situated in the mind. For those remaining in the heart, the seer becomes one with the sight.

The deeply learned ones know the mind as the directly expressed meaning of the supreme knowledge. The heart is the meaning aimed at. The Supreme is none other than the heart.

God dwells in you, as you, and you don't have to 'do' anything to be God-realized or Self-realized, it is already your true and natural state. Just drop all seeking, turn your attention inward, and sacrifice your ego mind to the One Self radiating in the Heart of your very being. For this to be your own presently lived experience, Self-Inquiry Meditation is a direct and immediate way.

Pure Consciousness, which is the Heart, includes all, and nothing is outside or apart from it. That is the ultimate Truth.

The activity affected by causes like fainting, sleep, excessive joy, grief, possession by spirits, fear etc goes to the heart, its own place.

Grace is always present. You imagine it as something high in the sky, far away, something that has to descend. It is really inside you, in your heart. When the mind rests in its source, grace rushes forth, sprouting as from a spring within you.

God's grace consists in the fact that He shines in the heart of every one as the Self; that power of grace does not exclude any one, whether good or otherwise.

The Self is the heart, self-luminous. Illumination arises from the heart and reaches the brain, which is the seat of the mind. The world is seen with the mind; so you see the world by the reflected light of the Self.

Mind is but a poor reflection of the radiant Heart.

When the mind, one-pointed and fully focused, knows the supreme silence in the Heart, this is true learning.

It is said that the heart is in the microcosm just as the orb of the sun in the macrocosm. The mind in Sahasrara is like the disc of the moon.

Call it by any name, God, Self, the Heart, or the Seat of Consciousness, it is all the same.

The macrocosm is in its entirety in the body. The body is in its entirety in the heart. Therefore heart is the summarised form of all the macrocosm.

Calmness is the criterion of spiritual progress. Plunge the purified mind into the Heart. Then the work is over.
