Sri Chinmoy
He (Martin Luther King) was very pure in mind and heart. He was a lover: a lover not only of his race but a lover of all mankind. His heart was so broad, so great, so magnanimous, and this gave him a most sincere feeling of absolute oneness with everyone. This is what made him so divinely great.
Chinmoy quotes
World-peace can be achieved when the power of love replaces the love of power.
Chinmoy
Death is not the end, death can never be the end. Death is the road. Life is the traveller. The Soul is the Guide




Chinmoy Sri quotes
If you really want to love humanity, then you have to love humanity as it is now.
Chinmoy Sri
Fear is bound to disappear when you realize that failure is not something shameful, damaging, destructive, or painful, but something natural.
Sri Chinmoy quotes
What we need is a life of balance—neither to wallow in the pleasures of wealth nor to lead a life of asceticism, but to embrace a life of simplicity and a heart of purity.
Sri Chinmoy
When the power of love overcomes the love of power there will be peace.
Chinmoy Sri quotes
If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy. Do not surrender to fate after a single failure. Failure, at most, precedes success.
Chinmoy
Science depends on outer experiment. Spirituality depends on inner searching and seeking. A scientist discovers the power that very often threatens even his own life. A spiritual seeker discovers the power that guides and moulds his life into a life of divine fulfilment.
Chinmoy Sri
The very acceptance of the spiritual life demands enormous courage. This courage is not the courage of a haughty, rough person who will strike others to assert his superiority; it is totally different. This courage is our constant awareness of what we are entering into, of what we are going to become, of what we are going to reveal.
Sri Chinmoy
World-peace can be achieved when the power of love replaces the love of power. (Peace-Lovers, 1997, AUM publications) + Words of Wisdom (2010)




Sri Chinmoy quotes
Lack of harmony comes when I feel that I know how to do something better than you. Lack of harmony is the song and dance of superiority. Because everybody feels superior, disharmony at every moment is entering into our lives.
Sri Chinmoy
Now what should be the relation between science and spirituality? It should be a relation of mutual acceptance and true understanding. It is an act of folly on our part to expect the same truth, the same knowledge and the same power from both science and spirituality. We must not do that. Neither must we set up the same goal for science and spirituality.
