“He who banishes all bad desires arising in his mind may be described as a sthita-prajna — one who is situated in perfect knowledge, one who is steadfast in action. Though, of course, ultimately we all should arrive at a stage when we should banish all desires, even the desire to see God; to a person in that stage all action becomes spontaneous. After one has seen God face to face, how can the desire to see Him still remain? When you have already jumped into the river, the desire to do so will no longer be there. Our desire to see God ceases when we are lost in Him, have become one with Him.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Do you have some kind of dream or vision for your future? Are there things that you would love to see happen in the days, months, and years ahead of you?

Joyce Meyer

“A commercial company enslaved a nation comprising two hundred millions. Tell this to a man free from superstition and he will fail to grasp what these words mean.

Do not the figures make it clear that not the English, but the Indians, have enslaved themselves?”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough”
