True religion is not talk,or doctrines, or theories. It is the relation between soul and God. We must realize God, feel God, see God, talk to God. That is religion.
- Swami Vivekananda

,,
As the rosy dawn comes before the rising sun, so does a heart intensely longing and yearning for God herald the glorious vision of the Divine.
- Sri Ramakrishna

,,
If you want peace of mind, don’t see the faults of others. Instead, see your own faults. No one is a stranger, my child. Learn to make the world your own.
- Sri Sarada Devi
