Mind Quotes

Enlightenment isn't a vast field of open opportunities that will change your life, actually it is but first it will destruct anything in its path unattached to the version of you that is awake. That's the part no one prepares for, it will break you to the core but the break will make you something greater then you ever thought imagineable.

~ Nikki Rowe

There is infinite energy within you. Whatever you think within, that very same thing will happen on the outside! However, here one chases his thoughts and works hard for things and yet nothing happens on the outside, people have incurred so much loss! Kaliyug (the time-cycle with lack of unison of mind, speech and body) is upon us!

~ Dada Bhagwan

You wake up oneday and it's different, not so much in a physical way but in the way you look at things. I think when you reach that primary moment in your life, you finally have the courage to let go of the human attachments and start to live in a way that compliments your heart and soul.

~ Nikki Rowe

~ Dada Bhagwan

How can the thoughts be stopped? Tell the thoughts, ‘You take care of your own issues; I am not on your side.’ That way you will sit on God’s side.

~ Dada Bhagwan

The mind that does inner intentions (bhaav-mann) is the ‘charge’ mind. The mind that is getting exhausted (dravya-mann) is the ‘discharge’ mind. Bhaav-mann creates the worldly life. Dravya-mann brings an end to the worldly life. When egoism goes away, bhaav-mann vanishes.

~ Dada Bhagwan

The chit is semi-animate (half-alive) and the mind is completely physical.

~ Dada Bhagwan

In reality, the outer instruments (hands, feet, eyes, etc) are not the hindrance (for liberation); it is the inner instrument (mind, intellect, chit and ego) that is obstructive.

~ Dada Bhagwan

~ Dada Bhagwan

A single thought can shift your entire world.

~ Alaric Hutchinson

It’s very possible to live life without disliking anyone. It’s all vibration. We can get to the point where ‘dislike’ does not even register as an option in the default settings of our minds.Some may wonder, ‘What does it matter if I like or dislike people?’In my perception, it matters greatly since dislike influences our entire energetic body. It becomes part of our vibrational aura, what we’re emitting and receiving in return from the world. How we respond to the world is how the world will treat us.

~ Alaric Hutchinson

Who can go beyond the mind? The one who has conquered the mind.

~ Dada Bhagwan

He who controls the minds of others is a ‘Gnani’ (the enlightened one). Only when your mind is completely under your control, can other’s mind come under your control. How can the other persons mind come under your control when one has disturbances himself.

~ Dada Bhagwan

The rule is that when one’s mind is controlled in a specific subject, he can control the other person’s mind in that subject.

~ Dada Bhagwan

Where our own mind doesn’t listen to us, how can other’s minds follow what we say? One should not have such expectation at all.

~ Dada Bhagwan

Nothing can get spoilt as long the mind is steady, and when it becomes restless, it will spoil. God doesn’t give or take from anyone, but because God is in the permanent blissful state, all external actions will go well when one’s mind is steadied in Him.

~ Dada Bhagwan

There are no places in this world where the chit can be concentrated. Without the chit attaining steady-state, the chit can’t be blissful. There are places where the mind can attain a steady state but there are no places where chit’s steady-state can be attained.

~ Dada Bhagwan

A place where the mind can attain stillness meaning doing darshan (seeing with the intent of worship) of a great person who has stillness of the mind, can still the mind of other person, however the chit is not steady there.

~ Dada Bhagwan

When the mind is steady, it will not create any vibrations, and therefore one will get the result. Along with that, if there is purity of chit, then one will surely be able to get his work done.

~ Dada Bhagwan

Mind is indeed that which takes one to Moksha, and it is also the mind that makes one wander around in the worldly life. One needs to just turn it in the right direction. It had been turned in the wrong direction, and so it needs to be turned in the right direction.

~ Dada Bhagwan

When the mind gets a solution [settlement], it is considered religion. It is considered irreligion when the mind does not get a solution.

~ Dada Bhagwan

Detachment is being apathetic or aloof to other people, while un-attachment is acknowledging and honoring other people, while choosing not to let them influence your emotional well being.

~ Alaric Hutchinson

Intelligence entails a strong mind, but genius entails a heart of a lion in tune with a strong mind.

~ Criss Jami

The level of intelligence has been tremendously increased, because people are thinking and communicating in terms of screens, and not in lettered books. Much of the real action is taking place in what is called cyberspace. People have learned how to boot up, activate, and transmit their brains.Essentially, there’s a universe inside your brain. The number of connections possible inside your brain is limitless. And as people have learned to have more managerial and direct creative access to their brains, they have also developed matrices or networks of people that communicate electronically. There are direct brain/computer link-ups. You can just jack yourself in and pilot your brain around in cyberspace-electronic space.

~ Timothy Leary

~ Edgar Allan Poe

The human mind is a lucky little local, passing accident which was totally unforeseen, and condemned to disappear with this earth and to recommence perhaps here or elsewhere the same or different with fresh combinations of eternally new beginnings. We owe it to this little lapse of intelligence on His part that we are very uncomfortable in this world which was not made for us, which had not been prepared to receive us, to lodge and feed us or to satisfy reflecting beings, and we owe it to Him also that we have to struggle without ceasing against what are still called the designs of Providence, when we are really refined and civilized beings.

~ Guy De Maupassant

Don’t let your mind drown out your intuitive voice, train your subconscious to be positive by using the heart intelligence.

~ Steven Redhead
