Prosperity Attraction – you create your own reality

Here are some quotes from Sri Chinmoy on meditation, which shed light on how to meditate and the benefits of meditation.

We meditate for various reasons. Peace of mind we all badly need. Therefore, when we meditate, either consciously or unconsciously we aim at peace of mind. Meditation give us peace of mind without a tranquilliser. And unlike a tranquilliser, the peace of mind that we get from meditation does not fade away. It lasts for good in some corner of the inmost recesses of our aspiring heart.

When you meditate you have to try to quiet and calm the mind. There should be no thought within the mind. Right now you feel that if you can cherish twenty ideas at a time, then you are the wisest man on earth. The more thoughts that enter into our minds, the more clever we feel we are. But in the spiritual life it is not like that. If consciously we can make the mind calm and quiet, we feel that a new creation dawns inside us.

When we meditate we expand, spreading our wings like a bird, trying to enter consciously into Infinity, Eternity and Immortality, welcoming them into our aspiring consciousness. We see, feel and grow into the entire universe of Light-Delight.

When we meditate, what we actually do is enter into a vacant, calm, still, silent mind. We go deep within and approach our true existence, which is our soul. When we live in the soul, we feel that we are actually meditating spontaneously.

Meditation is the only way to overcome fear. There is no other way. Why does meditation help us overcome fear? In meditation we identify ourselves with the vast, with the Absolute. When we are afraid of someone or something, it is because we do not feel that particular person or thing is a part of us. When we have established conscious oneness with the Absolute, with the Infinite Vast, the everything there is part of us. And how can we be afraid of ourselves?

I have always liked the sayings of Confucius. There is so much ageless wisdom and insight in them, and also practical tips you can apply to your own life.

Confucius (K’ung Fu-tzu) lived from 551 BC to 479 BC, during a time when imperial rule was breaking down in China. He was a Chinese social philosopher, whose teachings deeply influenced East Asian life and thought.

Confucius had a simple moral and political teaching: to love others, honor one’s parents, do what is right, rule by moral example instead of by force and violence and other similar teachings.

Confucius did not put into writing the principles of his philosophy. These were handed down through his disciples.

Here are a few of Confucius quotes:

~ Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.

~ Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

~ Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure.

~ When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.

~ Those who are firm, enduring, simple and unpretentious are the nearest to virtue.

~ Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without.

~ Ignorance is the night of the mind, but a night without moon and star.

I have collected some of Confucius quotes. You can find them at:

• Quotes on Ambition and Success

Quotes inspire, and are often condensed words of wisdom. If you think deeply on a quote, you will find much more than just an ispiring sentence.  When reading quotes, always read “between the lines”, as this will awaken your intuition, and brings up guidance and deeper understanding.

Quotes on ambition and success can awaken more ambition, and provide understanding of what ambition and  success mean. 

Here are a few quotes about ambition and success:

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.
Thomas Jefferson
 
Before success comes in any man’s life he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps, some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is exactly what the majority of men do.
Napoleon Hill  

Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.
Napoleon Hill

Weak desires bring weak results, just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat.
Napoleon Hill

You can start right where you stand and apply the habit of going the extra mile by rendering more service and better service than you are now being paid for.
Napoleon Hill        

As long as you’re going to think anyway, think big.
Donald Trump

Ambition has one heel nailed in well, though she stretch her fingers to touch the heavens.
Lao Tzu

Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great.
Mark Twain
