The hour of departure has arrived, and we go our separate ways, I to die, and you to live. Which of these two is better only God knows.

Death Life

The dance of life and death, prosperity and failure, have no reality except as dreams of God

Death Dreams Life Short

When a dear one dies, instead of grieving unreasonably, realize that he has gone on to a higher plane at the will of God, and that God knows what is best for him. Rejoice that he is free

Death Freedom

Death must be good, otherwise, God would not have ordained that it happen to everyone. Why live in fear of it?

Death Fear

If death were the end, then there is no God, and there are no realised masters - it is all a pack of lies. The great ones wouldn't urge you to became better, for what would be the use if, good or bad, we are all junked at the end of life?

Death Life

Be calm. God awaits you at the door.

Death Short Acceptance

The thoughts that predominate at the time of death can bring you either salvation — if your supreme desire is for God — or rebirth. If you are filled with worldly desires, those thoughts impinge themselves on the subtle body and bring the soul back into another earthly incarnation

You don't walk blind into situations unless you are a believer, if you are somebody with sense you look around, you will see what is there and what is not there, not just in God, in so many other things

Belief

The more you become 'I do not know' the deeper your seeking is, Seeking doesn't mean seeking something. If you have to seek, you should not make any assumptions. You already made an assumption, 'God is sitting up in the heaven, I am seeking him' this is not seeking, this is just hallucination.

Seeking Spirituality

When you say fate, obviously it's something that you cannot do anything about. When you say luck, again obviously it's something that you cannot do anything about. When you say God, again it's something that you cannot do anything about. So only thing that's in your hands is effort. So put your 100% into your effort, what happens happens

Effort

Once a person raises beyond certain limitations of his consciousness, every thought of his becomes the will of God itself

Thought Limitation Consciousness

If you get God's stamp on your philosophy, you don't have to turn back and look, you can just go on doing the same stupid thing endlessly.

Don't blame God or anyone else if you are suffering from disease, financial problems, emotional upsets. You created the cause of the problem in the past and must make a greater determination to uproot it now.

Trials do not come to destroy you, but to help you appreciate God better. God does not send those trials. They are of your own making—the effects of conscious or unconscious actions in the past, somewhere, sometime

Action Suffering

Happiness depends to some extent upon external conditions, but chiefly upon mental attitudes. In order to be happy one should have good health, a well-balanced mind, a prosperous life, the right work, a thankful heart, and above all, knowledge of God

Happiness Mind Health Attitude

The essential proof of Self-realization—of God's consciousness in you—is to be truly and unconditionally happy. If you are receiving more and more joy in meditation, without cessation, you may know that God is making manifest His presence in you.

God created this cosmic-dream play to entertain Himself and His children. He never meant for it to hurt His offspring. They injure themselves by not properly playing their parts
