Thoughts by Swami Chinmayananda

No achievement is impossible for man, if he knows how to act in the discipline of co-operation
The source of all bliss is the dedicated performance of duty
Love is the heart of all religions… love is to human hearts what the sun is to the flowers
The impossible is achieved through the process of self-perfection called meditation
Grief is the state of mind created by the absence of objects of one’s liking
The tragedy of human history is decreasing happiness in the midst of increasing comforts
Be openly happy in the joy of others; be sincerely sympathetic in others sorrows
We may often give without love; but we can never love without giving
Never brood over things which have happened or worry over things yet to happen. Live in the present
The world, even if you hold on to it will slip and God, even you want to leave Him, will not abandon you
Tragedies come from the world. Don’t worry about them. He gives; He takes away. Don’t lose your faith in Him
Learn to be happy alone, if we do not enjoy our own company, why inflict it on others!
A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at him
In life, one gets what one deserves and not what one desires and He knows what one deserves
Where ego asserts, Lord vanishes. When ego vanishes, Lord enters
Plan out your work, and work out your plans
Do not imagine your sincerity in work, but work sincerely with your imagination
Give! The greatest joy in life is in giving, in loving and in sacrificing
Living the right values of life is like building a dam across a river
You can cheat others but never your conscience, your God!
Man is essentially the thoughts that he entertains
