"Looking at this unreliable body whose very continuity is doubtful the very next moment, the yogi finds no reason for pride in the fleeting youth."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Meditation: the art and science, page 49

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"How can one be free of fear? What is the way to overcome your fears? Face them and examine them. Most fears are not genuine. When you examine your fears you will come to know that they are not real."

-Swami Rama, Samadhi the Highest State of Wisdom, pg 104

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"By high-energy person again is not meant that you move your hands and feet about, that you go about shouting on the streets, "Hey, my services are available;" but just your very presence is positive and never negative."

-Swami Veda Bharati in You & Your Emotions, page 87

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"In all journeys you have to move, but meditation is a journey in which you don't move yet you go ahead. The principle requirement is stillness."

-Swami Rama, Samyama the Power of Self-Transformation, page 192 in the 2024 edition

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"In spiritual progress, one has to be ruthless with oneself. Much of our failure to make spiritual progress lies in the fact that we find excuses for ourselves and we do not make the breakthrough that we are meant to make."

Swami Veda Bharati in Silence, Volume II, pg 90

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"Loving things of the world first, without knowing the reality beneath all these different forms and names, is not going to help the human race. The day you are awakened to the highest knowledge you will really start to love."

-Swami Rama
The Ancient Traveler: Writings on Love

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"Humility is power. Any other power is weakness."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Sayings, chapter 12

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"Meditation creates the highest of all joys. Meditation creates fearlessness. The final step of meditation is to remain in silence. This silence cannot be described; it is inexplicable. "

-SWAMI RAMA
Meditation and Its Practice [pg 79]

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"I am pure spirit, unborn and therefore immortal, and in past, present and future continuing from infinity into infinity: that is the one I truly identify myself with."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Gems of ancient wisdom, page 90

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"If something does not turn favorable in life one should learn to forget and start a fresh chapter. Strength, is a necessity for leading a happy life, and that strength should be inner strength.
Learn to be strong from within."

-SWAMI RAMA
The Essence of Spiritual Life [pg 30]

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"The practice of meditation really begins with mantra-diksha, the receiving of a personal mantra by initiation through a qualified teacher or preceptor in the tradition of a particular lineage; all the rest is preparation."

Swami Veda Bharati in Mantras: The Sacred Chants, p 44

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"Real japa becomes ajapa japa, when all modifications of the mind are purified, and when the totality of the mind is unified and becomes one-pointed. Then, japa goes on unconsciously all the time, even during sleep."

-Swami Rama in Mandukya Upanishad [pg 135]

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"The principle in spiritual life is to open your mouth only when it is beneficial. You don't open your mouth for bubbling, bubbling emotional self-expression."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Signs of Spiritual Progress, page 43

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"You have the power to change the entire stream of your life and give it a new direction. There is one difficulty in doing this, however, and that is your habit patterns."

--SWAMI RAMA in The Art of Joyful Living, pg 30

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"Nothing can be achieved in a day. Change has to begin somewhere, even at a snail's pace."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Sadhana in Applied Spirituality, page 15

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

Death is simply the end of a semester, or the comma in a long sentence. Karma might be viewed as a burden, but another way is to see karma as a natural guide, instructive, and inevitable.

-SWAMI RAMA in Sacred Journey, pg 58

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

"The test of the purity of emotions is in successful and happy relationships. If you are succeeding in relationships you are making spiritual progress."

-Swami Veda Bharati in Saying Nothing Says it All - Sayings, page 100

[Himalayan Yoga Publications Trust @HimalayanSaints]

" A student of yoga knows how to enjoy all the objects of the world and yet remain above the world. This philosophy also helps you to maintain your equanimity when you are met with failure."

- Swami Rama in Happiness is your creation, ch 1, p 9
