Chit-vriti nirodha (clearing the mind of the mental oscillations) is the essence of yoga. PATANJALI
At-one-ment of the soul and the Oversoul is yoga. YAJNAVALKYA
Extrication of the soul from the materials of life by disrobing it of the enshrouding sheaths, is yoga.
Crown of Life
Just as the sun spreads out its rays in the world, as an ocean carries on its surface bubbles, ripples, waves, tides and currents, and as a forest is made up of innumerable trees, so does the Oversoul or God, when looked at through His creation, appear to be split into so many forms, exhibiting and reflecting the light and life of God in a rich panorama of variegated colors. Yet His spirit runs through all alike, just as a string through so many beads, while He, unconcerned, remains apart from all in His own fullness
Swami Sahajananda Tirtha
However, this shift towards focusing on one’s inner world does not normally occur until one receives knocks or jolts in their life in the form of worldly problems. In fact, based on the past actions of a person, the world itself rewards or conspires to reward the person by creating worldly problems so that this shift towards focusing on the inner world occurs.
Sri Aurobindo
Delight of being is not limited in Time; it is without end or beginning. God comes out from one form of things only to enter into another.
What is God after all? An eternal child playing an eternal game in an eternal garden
Thoreau in Walden’s Pond
“In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavat Geeta, since whose composition years of the gods have elapsed, and in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seem puny and trivial; and I doubt if that philosophy is not to be referred to a previous state of existence, so remote is its sublimity from our conceptions. I lay down the book and go to my well for water, and lo! there I meet the servant of the Brahmin, priest of Brahma, and Vishnu and Indra, who still sits in his temple on the Ganges reading the Vedas, or dwells at the root of a tree with his crust and water-jug. I meet his servant come to draw water for his master, and our buckets as it were grate together in the same well. The pure Walden water is mingled with the sacred water of the Ganges.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your readings have been to you like the blast of a trumpet.”
According to Sri Ramakrishna....
According to Sri Ramakrishna, every religious practitioner can realize God in the particular aspect he or she prefers. For instance, while the Advaitin aims to realize the impersonal (nirgunạ ) aspect of the Infinite Reality, bhaktas strive to realize various personal (sagunạ ) aspects and forms of the same Infinite Reality every religious practitioner can realize God in the particular aspect he or she prefers.
