The secret of karma yoga which is to perform actions without any fruitive desires is taught by Lord Krishna in the Bhagavad-Gita.
To achieve, you need thought. You have to know what you are doing and that’s real power.
Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values.
A desire presupposes the possibility of action to achieve it; action presupposes a goal which is worth achieving.
Do not ever say that the desire to ‘do good’ by force is a good motive. Neither power-lust nor stupidity are good motives.
Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one’s values.
Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.
If you want rainbow, you have to deal with the rain.
Practice, the master of all things.
You are enough, a thousand times enough.
The hardest step we all must take is blindly trust in who we are.
What good are wings without the courage to fly?
Time is all we have and don’t.
Creative universities are bedrock of every developed nation’s S&T strategy.
Let me make one thing clear. I have never considered mere survival in power as any achievement, just as I have never seen coming to power as an achievement in itself.
Everything is at stake, there’s no option to stop now…We can break at this point, but we cannot bend now!
The greatest achievements of the human mind are generally received with distrust.
Hope is the confusion of the desire for a thing with its probability.
You must play boldly to win.
To hope is to wait for things to come to you. To dream is part of the process of setting goals and then striving to achieve them. You first must dream of doing things before you can do them.
