Gems from Jainism-15:

The greatest mistake of a soul is non-recognition of its real self and can only be corrected by recognizing itself.

Gems from Mata Amritanandamayi-8:

Does the sun need the light of a candle? God needs nothing from us.

Gems from the Buddha-28:

I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done.

Gems from the Bible-35:

Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Gems from the Vedanta-29:

This Teaching invites you to question everything. Faith in dogma requires that you question nothing. The "journey" only begins when questioning begins. The "journey" only continues if questioning continues.

Gems from Swami Vivekananda-62:

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

Gems from Sathguru Jaggi Vasudev-20:

If you are truly a seeker of Truth, Truth can not hide from you. It is in the Lap of truth that you have happened. Most people who claim to be seekers are only seeking security, solace, or the fulfillment of their desires.

Gems from Jainism-14:

Respect for all living beings is non-violence.

Gems from Mata Amritanandamayi-7:

Wherever you see men endowed with noble qualities and good dispositions, you will find a great mother who has inspired them to become what they are.

Gems from the Buddha-27:

I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.

Gems from the Bible-34:

The sleep of a laboring man is sweet.

Gems from the Vedanta-28:

You are already in your true state. Because of the mind, duality comes in and therefore you are afraid.

Gems from Swami Vivekananda-61:

Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the Truth.

Gems from Sathguru Jaggi Vasudev-19:

When your happiness is dependant upon what is happening outside of you, constantly you live as a slave to the external situation.

Gems from Jainism-13:

Silence and Self-control is non-violence.

Gems from Mata Amritanandamayi-6:

Only when human beings are able to perceive and acknowledge the Self in each other can there be real peace

Gems from the Buddha-26:

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

Gems from the Bible-33:

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.

Gems from the Vedanta-27:

One may as well go to a desert and try to benefit and improve or cleanse or purify or straighten out a mirage. How can anyone cleanse a mirage, purify a mirage, heal a mirage, straighten out a mirage, make a mirage that is wrong into a mirage that is right, or stop mirages? It is impossible. The mind will dissolve if you see every lie that is stored in it.

Gems from Swami Vivekananda-60:

Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin; to say that you are weak, or others are weak.

Gems from Sathguru Jaggi Vasudev-18:

Once the stillness comes into your life, then the mind also becomes absolutely still. When your mind becomes still, your intelligence explodes.

Gems from Mata Amritanandamayi-5:

We should never forget that after every night, there is a dawn. We should never lose our optimistic faith.

Gems from the Buddha-25:

Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.

Gems from the Bible-32:

It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Gems from the Vedanta-26:

Nirvana can be attained here and now; we do not have to wait for death to reach it. Nirvana is the realization of the Self; and after having once known that, if only for an instant, never again can one be deluded by the mirage of personality.

Gems from Swami Vivekananda-59:

If money help a man to do good to others, it is of some value; but if not, it is simply a mass of evil, and the sooner it is got rid of, the better.

Gems from Sathguru Jaggi Vasudev-17:

People have come to the conclusion that body means pain. And yet, just the right food, practices and a little change in attitude, and this body becomes a miracle.
