Your birth is a mistake you’ll spend your whole life trying to correct. – Lord Krishna I am time, the destroyer of all; I have come to consume the world. – Lord Krishna Just as a reservoir is of little use when the whole countryside is flooded, scriptures are of little use to the illumined man or woman, who sees the Lord everywhere. – Lord Krishna With a drop of my energy I enter the earth and support all creatures. Through the moon, the vessel of life-giving fluid, I nourish all plants. I enter breathing creatures and dwell within as the life-giving breath. I am the fire in the stomach which digests all food. – Lord Krishna They alone see truly who see the Lord the same in every creature, who see the deathless in the hearts of all that die. Seeing the same Lord everywhere, they do not harm themselves or others. Thus they attain the supreme goal. – Lord Krishna That one is dear to me who runs not after the pleasant or away from the painful, grieves not, lusts not, but lets things come and go as they happen. – Lord Krishna Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. – Lord Krishna He alone sees truly who sees the Lord the same in every creature...seeing the same Lord everywhere, he does not harm himself or others. – Lord Krishna It is better to perform one's own duties imperfectly than to master the duties of another. By fulfilling the obligations he is born with, a person never comes to grief. – Lord Krishna Among animals I am the lion; among birds, the eagle Garuda. I am Prahlada, born among the demons, and of all that measures, I am time. – Lord Krishna Thus I heard this wonderful dialogue between Lord Krishna and Mahatma Arjuna, causing my hair to stand on end. – Lord Krishna No one should abandon duties because he sees defects in them. Every action, every activity, is surrounded by defects as a fire is surrounded by smoke. – Lord Krishna It is better to strive in one’s own dharma than to succeed in the dharma of another. Nothing is ever lost in following one’s own dharma. But competition in another’s dharma breeds fear and insecurity. – Lord Krishna The awakened sages call a person wise when all his undertakings are free from anxiety about results. – Lord Krishna Reshape yourself through the power of your will... Those who have conquered themselves...live in peace, alike in cold and heat, pleasure and pain, praise and blame...To such people a clod of dirt, a stone, and gold are the same...Because they are impartial, they rise to great heights. – Lord Krishna On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure. Even a little effort toward spiritual awareness will protect you from the greatest fear. – Lord Krishna Abandon all attachment to the results of action and attain supreme peace. – Lord Krishna Krishna is far closer to life. The flute is the symbol of life. Dressed beautifully, standing in a dancing posture, the flute in his hands on his lips, it looks like he is going to sing a song at any moment. He looks so alive, and he is wearing a beautiful crown of flowers with peacock feathers. This is far truer to life. That’s how life is. It is tremendous joy. – Lord Krishna It is better to strive in one’s own dharma than to succeed in the dharma of another. Nothing is ever lost in following one’s own dharma. But competition in another’s dharma breeds fear and insecurity. – Lord Krishna Those who eat too much or eat too little, who sleep too much or sleep too little, will not succeed in meditation. But those who are temperate in eating and sleeping, work and recreation, will come to the end of sorrow through meditation. – Lord Krishna As they approach me, so I receive them. All paths, Arjuna, lead to me. – Lord Krishna Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep… wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you’re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you…. The one who turns to his friends and says, ‘that’s her.’ – Lord Krishna Strive to still your thoughts. Make your mind one-pointed in meditation. – Lord Krishna I am death, which overcomes all, and the source of all beings still to be born. – Lord Krishna Just remember that I am, and that I support the entire cosmos with only a fragment of my being. – Lord Krishna I am the beginning, middle, and end of creation – Lord Krishna The demonic do things they should avoid and avoid the things they should do… Hypocritical, proud, and arrogant, living in delusion and clinging to their deluded ideas, insatiable in their desires, they pursue unclean ends… Bound on all sides by scheming and anxiety, driven by anger and greed, they amass by any means they can a hoard of money for the satisfaction of their cravings… Self-important, obstinate, swept away by the pride of wealth, they ostentatiously perform sacrifices without any regard for their purpose. Egotistical, violent, arrogant, lustful, angry, envious of everyone, they abuse my presence within their own bodies and in the bodies of others – Lord Krishna Because there is a larger awareness that transcends time and space, an awareness is available after death. – Lord Krishna When meditation is mastered, the mind is unwavering, like the flame of a lamp in a windless place. Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose. – Lord Krishna For more quotes click here --> Hindu Quotes
