Devi Quotes By Kim Stanley Robinson

Bugs like these we've got here, you aren't going to find those unless you slow down and hunt really hard. Live nearby for a while and look. At which point it's too late, if you get a bad result. You're out of luck then." Long silence as he walked south along the beach. Then: "It's too bad. It really is a very pretty world." Later: "What's funny is anyone thinking it would work in the first place. I mean it's obvious any new place is going to be either alive or dead. If it's alive it's going to be poisonous, if it's dead you're going to have to work it up from scratch. I suppose that could work, but it might take about as long as it took Earth. Even if you've got the right bugs, even if you put machines to work, it would take thousands of years. So what's the point? Why do it at all? Why not be content with what you've got? Who were they, that they were so discontent? Who the fuck were they?" This sounded much like Devi, and Freya put her head — Kim Stanley Robinson

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Don't puzzle the mind with too many inquiries. One finds it difficult to put one single thing into practising, but dares invite distraction by filling the mind with too many things. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

Tell your husbands any bad news when everything is calm, not just as they come through the door. — Indra Devi

Adding kat after an adjective creates a compound word. The Wolof adjective hipi describes someone who is open-eyed and hyper-aware. A hipi-kat, therefore, is a person who is on the ball, or a "hepcat. — Debra Devi

Devi Quotes By Maha Devi Li Ra La

Knowing that all of manifestation and creation starts on the most subtle levels, and then sequentially unfolds itself like the seed growing into a tree, it is also the level from which change occurs, from which any form of transformation from one state into the next occurs. — Maha Devi Li Ra La

Numbers have life; they're not just symbols on paper. — Shakuntala Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

Men have to descend from their pedestal and learn how to be more broadminded and spiritual. — Indra Devi

It is the process of deeply anchoring yourself to a worthy goal that enables you to have the means released along the way to become that super-racer, become that vehicle that transcends all limitations, that goes beyond the horizontal level, that ascends to higher and more powerful levels all the time. — Maha Devi Li Ra La

Sing of my deeds
Tell of my combats
How I fought the treacherous demons
Forgive my failings
And bestow on me peace — Phoolan Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Let me tell you how to love all equally. Do not demand anything of those you love. If you make demands, some will give you more and some less. In that case you will love more those who give you more and less those who give you less. Thus your love will not be the same for all. You will not be able to love all impartially. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

A person may have no relatives anywhere, but Mahamaya may make him keep a cat and thus make him worldly. This is how She plays! — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

What else does one obtain by realization of God? Does one grow two horns? No, the mind becomes pure, and through a pure mind one attains knowledge and awakening. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

No one can suffer for all time. No one will spend all his days on this earth in suffering. Every action brings its own result, and one gets one's opportunities accordingly. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Munindra Misra

Parvati has wrathful incarnations surely,
As Durga, Kali, Shitala Devi, Tara, Chandi,
She has benevolent forms like Katyayani,
Kamalatmika, Bhuvaneshwari, Lalita, Gauri.
Parvati as the Goddess of Power does be,
Who source of all forms and of all beings be,
In Her all the power but exists undoubtedly,
And She who the destroys all fear clearly be.
The apparent contradiction that Parvati be,
The fair one, Gauri, and the dark one, Kali,
Suggests the placid wife, can change fully,
To her primal chaotic nature as powerful Kali. — Munindra Misra

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

I tell you one thing. If you want peace of mind, do not find fault with others. Rather learn to see your own faults. Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Shakuntala Devi

Immorality does not consist in being different. It consists in not allowing others to be so. — Shakuntala Devi

God cannot be realized without love. Yes, sincere love. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Open your grief-stricken heart to the Lord. Weep and sincerely pray, 'O Lord, draw me towards You; give me peace of mind.' By doing so constantly you, will gradually attain peace of mind. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

A 'civilization' that makes such a ridiculous fuss about alleged 'war crimes' - acts of violence against the actual or potential enemies of one's cause - and tolerates slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories, and circuses and the fur industry (infliction of pain upon creatures that can never be for or against any cause), does not deserve to live. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Shakuntala Devi

I relax completely when I'm at rest. I don't think of numbers; I don't think of work. — Shakuntala Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

Tranquillizers do not change our environment, nor do they change our personalities. They merely reduce our responsiveness to stimuli. They dull the keen edge of the angers, fears, or anxiety with which we might otherwise react to the problems of living. Once the response has been dulled, the irritating surface noise of living muted or eliminated, the spark and brilliance are also gone. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

Recalling some of the most spectacular horrors of history
the burning of heretics and witches at the stake, the wholesale massacre of "heathens," and other no less repulsive manifestations of Christian civilization in Europe and elsewhere
modern man is filled with pride in the "progress" accomplished, in one line at least, since the end of the dark ages of religious fanaticism. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

Respect the man of noble races other than your own, who carries out, in a different place, a combat parallel to yours
to ours. He is your ally. He is our ally, be he at the other end of the world.
Love all living things whose humble task is not opposed in any way to yours, to ours: men with simple hearts, honest, without vanity and malice, and all the animals, because they are beautiful, without exception and without exception indifferent to whatever "idea" there may be. Love them, and you will see the eternal in the glance of their eyes of jet, amber, or emerald. Love also the trees, the plants, the water that runs though the meadow and on to the sea without knowing where it goes; love the mountain, the desert, the forest, the immense sky, full of light or full of clouds; because all these exceed man and reveal the eternal to you. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

I do not belong to any religion. Everything is between God and myself. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Swami Vivekananda , Ramakrishna Paramhans, Sarda Devi

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success. — Swami Vivekananda , Ramakrishna Paramhans, Sarda Devi

Devi Quotes By Raathi Devi

Each moment of time that passes in my life is very important.
Because it strengthens my spirit to succeed in the complicated life. — Raathi Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Pray to God and make your heart as pure as the star. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Everything, husband, wife, or even the body, is only illusory. These are all shackles of illusion. Unless you can free yourself from these bondages, you will never be able to go to the other shore of the world. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

The happiness of the world is transitory. The less you become attached to the world, the more you enjoy peace of mind. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Such is life, here today, gone tomorrow! Nothing goes with one, except one's merit and demerit; good and evil deeds follow one even after death. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Shakuntala Devi

Students shy away from Maths, but in reality Maths is the best friend of man. — Shakuntala Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

We believe that man's value - as every creature's value, ultimately - lies not in the mere intellect but in the spirit: in the capacity to reflect that which, for lack of a more precise word, we choose to call "the divine," i.e. that which is true and beautiful beyond all manifestation, that which remains timeless (and therefore unchangeable) within all changes. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

Women must not shout back when their husbands come home and shout at them for any reason. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

My son, forbearance is a great virtue; there's no other like it. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

If we sit deep in meditation, the glow within the body will brighten, and will expand and spread outside. That is Devi Puja — Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

We've got our own daylight to get bad thoughts away, and we talk with that light - our star in our heart. We take away what's unimportant. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

To us, the high-resounding "isms" to which our contemporaries ask; us to give our allegiance, now, in 1948, are all equally futile: bound to be betrayed, defeated, and finally rejected by men at large, if containing anything really noble; bound to enjoy, for the time being, some sort of noisy success; if sufficiently vulgar, pretentious and soul-killing to appeal to the growing number of mechanically conditioned slaves that crawl about our planet, posing as free men; all destined to prove, ultimately, of no avail. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Kim Stanley Robinson

After much reflection, we are coming to the conclusion, preliminary and perhaps arbitrary, that the self, the so-called I that emerges out of the combination of all the inputs and processing and outputs that we experience in the ship's changing body, is ultimately nothing more or less than this narrative itself, this particular train of thought that we are inscribing as instructed by Devi. There is a pretense of self, in other words, which is only expressed in this narrative; a self that is these sentences. We tell their story, and thereby come to what consciousness we have. Scribble ergo sum. — Kim Stanley Robinson

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

He who will pray to God eagerly will see Him. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

One must be patient like the earth. What iniquities are being perpetuated on her! Yet she quietly endures them all. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarah Mlynowski

I wonder-maybe the key is balance. Maybe it's about living in the moment while still keeping your eye on the big picture-on all the pictures. — Sarah Mlynowski

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

One should perform even an insignificant task with respect. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Virchand Gandhi

... the designation of wife in India, of the Hindu wife, is higher and grander than that of Empress. She is called DeviVirchand Gandhi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

As you smell the fragrance of a flower by handing it or the smell of sandalwood by rubbing it against a stone, so you obtain spiritual awakening by constantly thinking of God. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

It becomes necessary to learn how to clear the mind of all clouds, to free it of all useless ballast and debris by dismissing the burden of too much concern with material things. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

He who thinks always of the Lord, which way can evil come to him? — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

I embraced Hinduism because it was the only religion in the world that is compatible with National Socialism. And the dream of my life is to integrate Hitlerism into the old Aryan Tradition, to show that it is really a resurgence of the original Tradition. It's not Indian, not European, but Indo-European. It comes from back to those days when the Aryans were one people near the North Pole. The Hyperborean Tradition. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Don't be afraid. Human birth is full of suffering and one has to endure everything patiently, taking the Name of God. None, not even God in human form can escape the sufferings of the body and mind. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

We must keep both our femininity and our strength. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

I'm for a multi-racial world in which each race keeps to itself, in harmony with the other races. Like in a garden, you have flowerbeds of roses and flowerbeds of carnations and irises and different other flowers. They don't intermarry. They stay separate, and each one has its beauty ... I'm against colonialism for the reason that colonialism infects the master as well as the slave. It even infects the master more. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Indra Devi

Yoga is a way to freedom. By its constant practice, we can free ourselves from fear, anguish and loneliness. — Indra Devi

Devi Quotes By Savitri Devi

Whether Hindus or Greeks, Egyptians or Japanese, Chinese, Sumerians, or ancient Americans
or even Romans, the most "modern" among people of antiquity
they all placed the Golden Age, the Age of Truth, the rule of Kronos or of Ra or of any other gods on earth
the glorious beginning of the slow, downward unfurling of history, whatever name it be given
far behind them in the past. — Savitri Devi

Devi Quotes By Shakuntala Devi

If you do not use a muscle or any part of the body, it tends to become atrophic. So is the case with the brain. The more you use it, the better it becomes. — Shakuntala Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Give up this dry discussion, this hodge-podge of philosophy. Who has been able to know God by reasoning? Even sages like Suka and Vyasa are at best like big ants trying to carry away a few grains of sugar from a large hea — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Kim Stanley Robinson

Thus it went as she made her way around the biomes of Ring B. Always she found that her mother the great engineer had made some crucial intervention, finding solutions to problems that had stymied the locals. Devi had the knack of sidestepping dilemmas, Badim said when Freya mentioned this, by moving back several logical steps, and coming at the situation from some new way not yet noticed. "It's sometimes called avoiding acquiescence," Badim said. "Acquiescence means accepting the framing of a problem, and working on it from within the terms of the frame. It's a kind of mental economy, but also a kind of sloth. And Devi does not have that kind of sloth, as you know. She is always interrogating the framing of the problem. Acquiescence is definitely not her mode. — Kim Stanley Robinson

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Why do people argue? Even the wisest of men have not found God through argument! Is God a subject for argument? — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

The creation itself is full of griefs. How can one understand joy if there is no sorrow? And how can everyone be happy at the same time? — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

However strong or beautiful this body may be, its culmination is in those three pounds of ashes. And still people are so attached to it. Glory be to God. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Certainly you will have doubts. There will be questionings and faith will return again. That is how faith is established. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

As clouds are blown away by the wind, the thirst for material pleasures will be driven away by the utterance of the Lord's name. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Shakuntala Devi

I am a prince(ss) of peace, sitting on the throne of poise, directing my kingdom of activity. — Shakuntala Devi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Desire may be compared to a minute seed. It is like a big banyan tree growing out of a seed, which is no bigger than a dot. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Devi Ansevi

Frustration, arousal, fury, hurt. That was the emotional cocktail I drank every time we spent more than five minutes together. — Devi Ansevi

Devi Quotes By Sarada Devi

Does one get faith by mere studying of books? Too much reading creates confusion. The Master used to say that one should learn from the scriptures that God alone is real and the world illusory. — Sarada Devi

Devi Quotes By Maha Devi Li Ra La

You are a hologram of the world around you, and in that hologram, whatever you do inside yourself shows itself in your outside, and that means you have total control over your life and your creations and experiences by just going inside. — Maha Devi Li Ra La
