Sorrow prepares you for joy

Sorrow prepares you for joy.

It violently sweeps everything out of your house,

so that new joy can find space to enter.

It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart,

so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place.

It pulls up the rotten roots,

so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow.

Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart,

far better things will take their place.

Healthy, wealthy, and wise

Early to bed

and early to rise

makes a man

healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

~~~ Benjamin Franklin

I have believed in this quote since childhood, thrilled to see that scientists have proved it today.

3 scientists just won the Nobel Prize for discovering how body clocks are regulated – here’s why that’s such a big deal

If you truly loved yourself…..

 

If you truly

loved yourself,

you could never hurt another.

 ~~Buddha

Open your heart

If you want the secret vision,

then close your eyes.

If you wish an embrace

Open your heart.

Enlightenment

Knowing others

                  is wisdom,

                                   knowing yourself

                                                    is Enlightenment.

 

~~ Lao Tzu

Meditation

When meditation is mastered,

the mind is unwavering

like the flame

of a lamp in a windless place.

 

Lord Krishna

Read your ownself

you have read

thousands of books

of knowledge,

have you ever

tried to read your ownself?

 

~~ Bulleh Shah

Do not feel lonely

Do not feel lonely,

the entire universe

is inside you’

Piece of music & rhythm

Each human personality

is like a piece of

music,

having an individual tone

and a rhythm

of its own.

~~Hazrat Inayat Khan

Our life is a constant journey

Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death.

The landscape changes, the people change,

our needs change, but the train keeps moving.

Life is the train, not the station.

 

~~Paulo Coelho
