The Vedanta teaches that Nirvana can be attained here and now, that we do not have to wait for death to reach it. Nirvana is the realization of the Self; and after having once known that, if only for an instant, never again can one be deluded by the mirage of personality.
Swami Vivekananda
» Swami Vivekananda - all quotes »
Everything that is thought and expressed in words is one-sided, only half the truth; it all lacks totality, completeness, unity. When the Illustrious Buddha taught about the world, he had to divide it into Samsara and Nirvana, illusion and truth, into suffering and salvation. One cannot do otherwise, there is no other method for those who teach. But the world itself, being in and around us, is never one-sided. Never is a man or a deed wholly Samsara or wholly Nirvana; never is a man wholly a saint or a sinner. This only seems so because we suffer the illusion that time is something real.
Hermann Hesse
We're Nirvana and we really don't particularly like heavy metal.
Kurt Donald Cobain
Heaven is home. Utopia is here. Nirvana is now.
Edward Abbey
People act like Nirvana invented grunge; they just took it and personified it.
Billy Corgan
