More quotes from Gurudeva

 

"Compassion is the outgrowth of love. Love is the outgrowth of understanding. Understanding is the outgrowth of reason. "

~Gurudeva

"Patience is having the power of acceptance, accepting people, accepting events as they are happening. One of the great spiritual powers that people can have is to accept things as they are. "

~Gurudeva

“We are all growing towards God, and experience is the path. Through experience we mature out of fear into fearlessness, out of anger into love, out of conflict into peace, out of darkness into light and union in God. Aum”

- Gurudeva

“It is easy to get what you think of
if you can get yourself to think of it.”

-Weavers Wisdom

"Yes, willpower is the key, the must, the most needed faculty for spiritual unfoldment on this path. Work hard, strive to accomplish, strengthen the will by using the will. "

~Gurudeva

"Giving a gift begrudgingly in return for another gift is, of course, mere barter. Many families barter their way through life in this way, thinking they are giving. But such gifts are cold, the fulfillment is empty, and the law of karma pays discounted returns. "

~Gurudeva

"There is no intrinsic evil. God Siva has created the principle of opposites, which are the means for the soul's maturation--beauty and deformity, light and darkness, love and hate, joy and sorrow. "

~Gurudeva
