Text Quotes
Who may be called a paramahamsa? He who, like a swan, can take the milk from a mixture of milk and water, leaving aside the water. He who, like an ant, can take the sugar from a mixture of sugar and sand, leaving aside the sand (Wa Quotes)
The waves belong to the Ganges, not the Ganges to the waves. A man cannot realize God unless he gets rid of all such egotistic ideas as I am such an important man or I am so and so. Level the mound of I to the ground by dissolving it with tears of devotion (Wa Quotes)
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny (Wa Quotes)
Imagine a limitless expanse of water: above and below, before and behind, right and left, everywhere there is water. In that water is placed a jar filled with water. There is water inside the jar and water outside, but the jar is still there. The I is the jar (Wa Quotes)
One cannot attain divine knowledge till one gets rid of pride. Water does not stay on the top of a mound; but into low land it flows in torrents from all sides (Wa Quotes)
The vanities of all others may gradually die out, but the vanity of a saint regarding his sainthood is hard indeed to wear away (Wa Quotes)
If you feel proud, let it be in the thought that you are the servant of God, the son of God. Great men have the nature of a child. They are always a child before Him; so they are free from pride. All their strength is of God and not their own. It belongs to Him and comes from Him (Wa Quotes)
The young bamboo can be easily bent, but the full grown bamboo breaks when it is bent with force. It is easy to bend the young heart towards God, but the untrained heart of the old escapes the hold whenever it is so drawn (Wa Quotes)
A boat may stay in water, but water should not stay in boat. A spiritual aspirant may live in the world, but the world should not live within him (Wa Quotes)
One does not care for the cage when the bird has flown away from it. And when the bird of life flies away, no one cares for the body left behind (Wa Quotes)
It is very pleasant to scratch an itching ring worm, but the sensation one gets afterwards is very painful and intolerable. In the same way the pleasures of this world are very attractive in the beginning, but their consequences are terrible to contemplate and hard to endure (Wa Quotes)
Sunlight is one and the same wherever it falls; but only a bright surface like that of water, or of a mirror reflects it fully. So is the light Divine. It falls equally and impartially on all hearts, but the pure and pious hearts of holy men receive and reflect that light well (Wa Quotes)
When the tail of the tadpole drops off, it can live both in water and on land. When the tail of delusive ignorance drops off from man, he becomes free. He can then live in God and the world equally well (Wa Quotes)
A knowledge of different literatures is the best way to free one's self from the tyranny of any of them (Wa Quotes)
Barricades of ideas are worth more than barricades of stones. There is no prow that can cut through a cloudbank of ideas. A powerful idea, waved before the world at the proper time, can stop a squadron of iron clad ships, like the mystical flag of the Last judgement (Wa Quotes)
Knowing is what counts. To know one's country and govern it with that knowledge is the only way to free it from tyranny (Wa Quotes)
It was imperative to make common cause with the oppressed, in order to secure a new system opposed to the ambitions and governing habits of the oppressors (Wa Quotes)
My poems are like a dagger sprouting flowers from the hilt; My poetry is like a fountain sprinkling streams of coral water (Wa Quotes)
To insist on racial divisions, on racial differences, in an already divided people, is to place obstacles in the way of public and individual happiness, which can only be obtained by bringing people together as a nation (Wa Quotes)
There is happiness in duty, although it may not seem so. To fulfill one's duty elevates the soul to a state of constant sweetness. Love is the bond between men, the way to teach and the center of the world (Wa Quotes)
Luck, bad if not good, will always be with us. But it has a way of favoring the intelligent and showing its back to the stupid (Wa Quotes)
The first step in freeing men from external chains was to emancipate them from the internal chains of false beliefs and ideals. To free one's mind of chains is to free it of the care of what is acceptable or viewed so by society, this is when true freedom is discovered (Wa Quotes)
Education in accord with nature was thought to be the first step in insuring this more social society. It was plainly seen that economic and political limitations were ultimately dependent upon limitations of thought and feeling (Wa Quotes)
Men's fundamental attitudes toward the world are fixed by the scope and qualities of the activities in which they partake (Wa Quotes)
The problem of education in a democratic society is to do away with... Dualism and to construct a course of studies which makes thought a guide of free practice for all and which makes leisure a reward of accepting responsibility for service, rather than a state of exemption from it (Wa Quotes)
The intellect is at home in that which is fixed only because it is done and over with, for intellect is itself just as much a deposit of past life as is the matter to which it is congenial. Intuition alone articulates in the forward thrust of life and alone lays hold of reality (Wa Quotes)
Virtue is an angel, but she is a blind one, and must ask knowledge to show her the pathway that leads to her goal (Wa Quotes)
A house without books is like a room without windows. No man has a right to bring up his children without surrounding them with books, if he has the means to buy them. It is wrong to his family. Children learn to read by being in the presence of books. The love of knowledge comes with reading and grows upon it. And the love of knowledge, in a young mind, is almost a warrant against the inferior excitement of passions and vices (Wa Quotes)
Let us not be content to wait and see what will happen, but give us the determination to make the right things happen (Wa Quotes)
Lost - Yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone forever (Wa Quotes)
