Nisargadatta Maharaj

 ​"To realize the self is to realize that you have never left home. All your spiritual searching, all your suffering, and all your triumphs were just ripples on the surface of an eternal, unbroken sleep from which you are now waking up."



Ramana Maharshi

 ​"Do not struggle with the mind. Just be a witness to its restlessness. By watching it, you separate yourself from it. This detachment is the highest state of peace."




Sri Chaitanya-caritamrita Adi-lila 4.214

 ☀ SHRI RADHA ॐ ☀

“Among the gopīs, Śrīmatī Rādhikā is the foremost. She surpasses all in beauty, in good qualities, in good fortune and, above all, in love.”




Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation

 

“Do not look for rest in any pleasure, because you were not created for pleasure: you were created for spiritual joy. And if you do not know the difference between pleasure and spiritual joy you have not yet begun to live.”

The Divine Love of Shiva and Parvati – The Eternal Union of Consciousness and Shakti ART BY TALON ABRAXAS


The divine love of Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati is one of the most profound and sacred symbols in Sanatan Dharma, representing the eternal union of Shiva (Pure Consciousness) and Shakti (Divine Energy). Their relationship is founded on unwavering devotion, mutual respect, sacrifice, and unconditional love, inspiring devotees to cultivate harmony, patience, and spiritual companionship in their own lives. While Shiva embodies detachment, wisdom, and transcendence, Parvati represents compassion, strength, nurturing, and the creative power that sustains the universe. Together, they demonstrate that true love is not merely an emotional bond but a sacred partnership that balances strength with gentleness, austerity with grace, and power with compassion. Their divine union reminds humanity that when faith, love, and dharma guide a relationship, it becomes a path toward both worldly happiness and spiritual liberation.

Ram Dass, Polishing the Mirror

 We are on an inevitable course of awakening. If you understand that message deeply, it allows you to enter into your spiritual practices from a different perspective, one of patience and timelessness.

You do your practices not out of a sense of duty or because you think you should, but because you know in your soul there really is nothing else you would rather do.
