for all this is Brahman, all beings and all that is are this Self.
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
Worship the Living God
We want to worship a living God. I have not seen anything but God all my life, nor
have you. To see this chair you first see God, and then the chair in and through
Him. He is everywhere, saying, I am. The moment you feel I am, you are
conscious of Pure Existence. Where shall we go to find God if we cannot see Him
in our own hearts and in every living being? Thou art the man, Thou art the
woman, Thou art the girl and Thou art the boy. Thou art the old man tottering witha stick. Thou art the young man walking in the pride of his strength. Thou art all
that exists a wonderful living God, who is the only fact in the universe.
Swami Vivekananda the Great
Neither I am me,
nor you are you,
nor you are me.
Also, I am me,you are you
and you are me
We have become one
in such a way
That I am confused whether
I am you,
or you are me. Rumi
Last night,
I saw the realm of joy and pleasure.
there I melted like salt;
no religion; no blasphemy,
no conviction or uncertainty remained.
In the middle of my heart,
a star appeared
30
and the seven heavens were lost
in its brilliance. Rumi
The Divine Spirit, the spark of God that dwells in the heart, is smaller than a grain
of rice, is smaller than a grain of rye, is smaller than a mustard seed, is smaller
than a grain of millet, is smaller that the germ in the grain of millet.
This Atman that dwells in the heart is bigger than the Earth; it is bigger than the
atmosphere, bigger than the sky, bigger than the worlds altogether.
Chandogya Upanishad
Infinity is that. Infinity is this.
From Infinity, Infinity has come into existence.
From Infinity, when Infinity is taken away, Infinity remains.
Invocation from the Isa and Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
What shall I do with the things that cannot make me immortal?
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
Lead me from the unreal to the Real
Lead me from darkness to Light.
Lead me from death to Immortality.
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
From Bliss we come into existence.
In Bliss we grow.
At the end of our journey's close, into Blisswe retire.
Taittiriya Upanishad
The spirit (Atman) cannot be revealed by the weakling.
Mundaka Upanishad
