The world for me, not I for the world. Great and shrewdness are our slaves, not we theirs. It is the idea of the animal to remain where he is; it is the idea of man to look for the good and stay away from insidiousness; it is the idea of God to look for not one or the other, yet just to be endlessly joyful. Give us a chance to be God. Make the heart like a sea, go past every one of the wastes of time of the world, be distraught with happiness even at wickedness; see the world as an image and afterward make the most of its excellence, realizing that nothing influences you. Youngsters discovering glass globules in a mud puddle, that is the benefit of the world. Take a gander at it with quiet lack of concern; see great and insidious as the equivalent – both are just ‘God’s play’; appreciate all.

Sri Ramakrishna

Man is trying hard to make himself happy. But nothing succeeds unless He wills it. Freedom can be realized in two ways, by identifying oneself with Him and by living in eternal self-surrender to Him. There can be no freedom of will away from Him.

Great is close Truth, however, isn’t yet Truth. Subsequent to learning not to be irritated by fiendishness, we need to learn not to be fulfilled by great. We should find that we are past both underhanded and great; we should think about their alteration and see that they are both essential…. Great and shrewdness are one and are as far as we could tell. At the point when the brain is self-balanced, neither great nor awful influences it. Be splendidly free; at that point neither can influence it, and we appreciate opportunity and joy. Abhorrent is the iron chain, great is the gold one; both are chains. Be free, and know once for all that there is no chain for you. Lay hold of the brilliant chain to extricate the hold of the iron one, at that point discard both…. On the planet take dependably the situation of the supplier. Give everything and search for no arrival. Give love, give assistance, give the administration, give any seemingly insignificant detail you can, however, keep out the bargain. Make no conditions, and none will be forced. Give us a chance to give out of our own abundance, similarly as God provides for us…. The master is the main Giver. Every one of the men on the planet is just retailers. get his check, and it must be regarded all over the place.

1) Work, work, work – I care for only that. Work, work, work, even unto passing! Those that are feeble must make themselves extraordinary laborers, incredible saints – don’t worry about it the cash, it will drop from the sky. On the off chance that in the endeavor to convey pieces of sustenance to starving mouths, name and ownership and all be destined even – thrice honored craftsmanship thou! It is the heart, the heart that overcomes, not the cerebrum. Books and learning, Yoga and reflection and brightening – all are nevertheless residue contrasted and love. It is love that gives you the otherworldly powers, love that gives you Bhakti, love that gives brightening, and love, once more, that prompts liberation. This to be sure is love, love of the Lord in the human sanctuary… .This is nevertheless the start, and except if we spread over the entire of India, nay, the entire earth, in that way, where lies the significance of our Lord!

2) It is not good merely working. Work is drudgery if there is no spiritual feeling behind it.

Sri Ramakrishna

The sum and substance of the whole matter are that a man must love God, must be restless for him. It doesn’t matter whether you believe that God incarnates Himself as the man. But you will realize Him if you have that yearning. At that point He Himself will tell you what He resembles. In the event that you should be distraught, for what reason would it be a good idea for you to be frantic for the things of the world? On the off chance that you should be distraught, be frantic for God alone.

Every day the body is moving slowly towards destruction – none can stop it. But he minded continues eternally. Body after body will come and go, but the mind will persist and take up bodies again and again until one attains complete illumination. Consequently, the primary undertaking is to try to sanitize the brain.

winnowing

হাতি দেখতে গিয়ে চার কানা মানুষ । হাতির পা ছুঁয়ে গেল, আর বললো,

‘ হাতি একটা পিলার এর মত ।
‘ দ্বিতীয়টা ট্রাঙ্ক স্পর্শ করেছে, এবং বলেছে, হাতি একটি মোটা লাঠি বা ক্লাবের মত ।
‘তৃতীয় স্পর্শ করলো পেট, আর বললো,’ হাতি বড় জার মত ।
‘চতুর্থ কান ছুঁয়ে গেল, আর বললো,’ হাতি যেন একটি winnowing ঝুড়ি । ‘ এইভাবে তারা নিজেদের মধ্যে ঝগড়া করতে শুরু করল হাতির মত । তাদের প ্ রতি আল ্ লাহর পক ্ ষ থেকে কোন প ্ রত ্ যক ্ ষ প ্ রত ্ যক ্ ষ ‘ তারা তাকে সবকিছু বলেছে, এবং তাকে তাদের করতে বলেছে । ঐ লোকটি বলল, ‘ তোমাদের কেউ হাতি দেখেনি । হাতি স্তম্ভের মত নয়, তার পা স্তম্ভের মত । এটা বড় জল-জাহাজের মত নয়, এর পেট যেন জল-জাহাজের মত । এটি একটি winnowing ঝুড়ি মত নয়, এর কান হল winnowing ঝুড়ি এর মত । এটি একটি পুরু লাঠি বা ক্লাবের মত নয়, কিন্তু এর proboscis এমন । হাতি এই সব কিছুর সমাহার । ‘ একই ভাবে যারা ঝগড়া করে তারা শুধুমাত্র দেবতার একটি দিক দেখেছে ।

Four visually impaired men went to see an elephant.

One contacted the leg of the elephant, and stated, ‘The elephant resembles a column.’
The second contacted the storage compartment, and stated, The elephant resembles a thick stick or club.’
The third contacted the tummy, and stated, ‘The elephant resembles a major container.’
The fourth contacted the ears, and stated,

‘The elephant resembles a winnowing crate.’ Thus they started to question among themselves with regards to the figure of the elephant. A bystander seeing them subsequently quarreling, stated, ‘Would it be that you are debating about?‘ They let him know everything and requested that the referee. That man stated, ‘None of you has seen the elephant. The elephant isn’t cared for a column, its legs resemble columns. It doesn’t care for a major water-vessel, its gut resembles a water-vessel. It hasn’t cared for a winnowing bin, its ears resemble winnowing bins. It doesn’t care for a thick stick or club, yet its proboscis is that way. The elephant is the blend of all these.’ In a similar way those fight who have seen one angle just of the Deity.
