Where there is not the slightest of misery; that is where the Soul is. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
He who wants to go to moksha (Final Liberation), he will have to realize his own self. Otherwise no matter how much of anything else he does, he will not attain moksha (liberation). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
One has to decide to know the nature of the Soul. Will one not have to know that? Nothing is attained by just saying, 'I am the Soul, I am the Soul.' The Soul has to come in to one's experience, until then the worldly problems will not go away, will they? ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The Enlightened one (Gnani Purush) never wastes his time in counting money; focus of the awareness of the self (upayog) is wasted in doing this. One's focused awareness (upayog) is where he has 'interest'! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
It is not possible to know 'Who am I?' by 'doing'. 'Doing' (anything), requires egoism, and where there is egoism, 'Who am I' cannot be known. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Who doesn't allow one to attain siddh gati (the final state of Liberation, moksha)? The body-complex (pudgal - that which charges and discharges). Similarly, what doesn't let a gourd covered with mud, to go on top and float on water? The mud. The negative atoms, they weigh very heavily. They drag the Soul, the Self lower down. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
He who can see his own mistake can become absolute supreme Self (Parmatma)! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
I am the Atma abiding in the heart of all beings. I am also the beginning, the middle, and the end of all beings. ~ Anonymous
Atma quotes by Anonymous
Arjuna, I will now enumerate the marks of the devotee I most dearly love. I love the one who
harbors no ill will toward any living being, who returns love for hatred, who is friendly and
compassionate toward all. I love the devotee who is beyond 'I' and 'mine,' unperturbed by pain and not elated by pleasure, who possesses firm faith, is forgiving, ever contented and ever meditating on Me.
"I love the peaceful devotee who is neither a source of agitation in the world nor agitated by the world. I love those who are free of fear, envy, and other annoyances that the world brings, who accept the knocks that come their way as blessings in disguise.
"I love those who do their worldly duties unconcerned and untroubled by life. I love those who expect absolutely nothing. Those who are pure both internally and externally are also very dear to Me. I love the devotees who are ready to be My instrument, meet any demands I make on them, and yet ask nothing of Me.
"I love those who do not rejoice or feel revulsion, who do not grieve, do not yearn for possessions, are not affected by the bad or good things that happen to and around them and yet are full of devotion to Me. They are dear to Me because they live in the Self (Atma), not in the commotion of the world.
"I love devotees whose attitudes are the same toward friend or foe, who are indifferent to honor or ignominy, heat or cold, praise or criticism - who not only control their talking but are silent within ~ Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
Atma quotes by Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
I did this so well'- one says this and tastes the sweetness of subtle pride of doership. One enjoys the sweetness of this subtle pride. There is pain [suffering] with projection of doer-ship. God is eternal bliss and that indeed is the nature of the Self! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Vitality, or Prana-Jiva; (3) Astral Body, or Linga-Sharira; (4) Animal Soul, or Kama-Rupa; (5) Human Soul, Manas; (6) Spiritual Soul, or Buddhi; and (7) Spirit, or Atma. Of these seven principles, the last or higher Three, namely, the Atma, Buddhi, and Manas, compose the higher Trinity of the Soul - the part of man which persists; while the lower Four principles, namely, Rupa, Prana-Jiva, Linga-Sharira, and Kama-Rupa, respectively, are ~ William Walker Atkinson
Atma quotes by William Walker Atkinson
In shukladhyan (Pure contemplation as the Self, the Soul), whole world begins to look faultless (nirdosh). In dharmadhyan, despite seeing the other person at fault; one will uphold him as being faultless that is 'dhramadhyan', 'what is the other person's fault? He is simply instrumental (nimit) in it. It is due to the effect of my own karmas that I have encountered him. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
To 'us', nothing except the Soul (Atma) is beautiful, and there is indeed no such thing as bad in this world. Bad is to deviate from one's own 'boundary' (to not remain as the Self). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
How far is the Soul from attaining moksha (ultimate liberation)? Only the obstructive (antray) karmas. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Real happiness and peace is attained only if one comes into one's true Self. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Keeping 'pure focused applied awareness of the Self (Soul)' (shuddha upayog) is the same as being in the Absolute Supreme Self-form (Parmatma swaroop). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Nothing in this world can touch or affect the one who remains in the focused pure applied awareness of the Self, the Soul (shuddha upayogi). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Other's power, other's enjoyments, other's space, people have become the owners of that which does not belong to one's self. If they become the owners of 'Self', death is no more; One is himself, the Absolute Supreme Soul. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
As long as the egoism is alive, 'my-ness' remains within the self. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Circumstances can change through worldly knowledge (ignorance of the self, the Soul) and also through (true) knowledge (realization of the self). With ignorance, circumstances will bring entanglements and with (true) knowledge, circumstances will bring solutions. (True) Knowledge itself changes circumstances. Is God likely to come down and do so? ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Indeed, true seers, perceiving Divinity in everyone, do no harm to anyone. The ones who don't perceive this unity separate themselves from others, seeing some as friends and others as foes. These are the ones who do harm. It is this illusion of separateness that causes all evils perpetrated by humanity! How can one who really knows Atma injure the same Atma in another? As I have often repeated, the true seer of Atma reaches the Godhead and leaves death and rebirth behind. ~ Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
Atma quotes by Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
To be unattached in every phase of one's life is indeed full enlightened bliss of the Self (Purna samadhi)! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Keep on doing whatever it is that you have been doing; but, do no attachment-abhorrence. If 'You' stay in 'Your [Pure Soul] state'; attachment-abhorrence will not occur. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
If 'one' really were the sufferer or the enjoyer, then he would get tired. But the Self in reality is not experiencing anything. He simply does egoism only. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
One who lives with one's own (Soul's) support is the Absolute Supreme Soul (Parmatma). One who lives with the body complex (relative self's) support is the embodied (mortal) self (Jeevatma). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
In the absence of conceptual clarity, the dominant emotion is fear, fear of losing opportunities, fear of threats, fear of achievement, fear of abandonment, fear of invalidation. The emotion of fear impacts the way we think and what we believe. It contaminates the filtering of sensations and choice of responses. It creates a vicious cycle where atma is eclipsed by aham, our judgemental self. ~ Devdutt Pattanaik
Atma quotes by Devdutt Pattanaik
Until ignorance, of one's own Self (the Soul), is removed, illusory attachment (moha) will not go away. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Man is indeed the Absolute Supreme Soul (Parmatma); it is possible for infinite divinity to arise within. The moment he has a desire, he becomes a human! Otherwise, he can acquire whatever he wants, but he is unable to do so because of impediments (antray). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The worldly life relationships are that of selfishness. All relationships are relative (temporary). Only the relationship with the Gnani Purush [the enlightened one] is real. He has infinite compassion for you. He has become one with his soul [atma swaroop] and therefore he brings forth all your solutions (and liberates you). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
When is bliss of the self (Samadhi) experienced? It is when one does not want anything, when all the tubers of one's greed goes away, then the bliss of the self (Samadhi) is experienced. Give away, how much you give (your things to others), that much (happiness) will be yours ! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
That which cannot be seen by the eyes, nor heard by the ears, is the Self (chetan, Soul). That which can be heard by the ears, 'Television' is seen, a 'record' is heard, that is not self (chetan, Soul) . The Self (chetan, Soul) can only be seen with the divine vision (divya chakshu). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The 'Gnani' is in the form of an instrument to attain the goal (Experience of Pure Soul). The goal is the scientific form of Soul (vignan swarup atma). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
There is no samkit (vision with right belief that I am Pure Soul) where there are kashays [anger, pride, deceit and greed], and where there are no kashays, there is samkit (self realization). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
A man obtains his God-the-Preceptor at the age of twelve years and four months. At the age of twenty four years and eight months he gets and sees Atma, God, in the seventh plane. It takes twelve years and four months in the body for God's manifestations and realizations in multifarious conditions in the process of transformation of life-power into God. ~ Sri Jibankrishna Diamond
Atma quotes by Sri Jibankrishna Diamond
Desires are done by the 'Pudgal' (non-self mind-body-complex), so how can they be suppressed? If You (the Self) are the one doing the desiring, then why don't you stop it? But that doesn't happen therefore, desire is a matter pertaining to the Pudgal (non-self mind-body-complex). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Satguru knows that there is no death to the disciple. Atma never dies. Even after death he continues to get direction on the path ~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Atma quotes by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
A wife and a husband! For infinite lifetimes this is all one has done. And in doing so, one has lost his Absolute Supreme Self [Parmatma]! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
What I am saying is, 'Know the science'. Know what is Soul (The True Self) and Non-Soul (Everything other than the Soul). Upon knowing this, all desires will vanish. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
To constantly see one's own self as 'Pure', and to see other's self as 'pure', is focused applied awareness of the Self, the Soul (shuddha upayog). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The Soul has never become impure not even for a second and if it had become impure then no one in this world would have been able to purify it. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
As long as one finds faults with the world, he won't be able to find anything about the Soul (Self). He who sees his own faults is the Soul (Self) himself! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The one with 'egoism' and 'my-ness' (mamata); the one with the awareness that 'I am the doer'- are all called 'Jiva' [living beings] and he who has attained the realization that 'I am not the doer, I am the Knower-Seer and I am the form of the eternal-bliss', then he is the 'Soul'! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
In an effort to teach myself self-restraint and self-control, I decided that until I completed my engineering degree, I would wear only white saris, refrain from sweets, sleep on a mat and take baths with cold water. I aimed to become self-sufficient; I would be my best friend and my worst enemy. I didn't know then that such a quote already existed in the Bhagavad Gita where Krishna says, 'Atma aiva hi atmano bandhu aatma aiva ripu atmanah'. ~ Sudha Murty
Atma quotes by Sudha Murty
All our thought process should be concentrated on merger of soul with the vital life. When this realisation is achieved, it leads the soul from Atma to Paramatma, one in poccession of all. ~ Kunal Narayan Uniyal
Atma quotes by Kunal Narayan Uniyal
When one decides that I want to get rid of the mistakes which are in me, he can become the Absolute Supreme Soul (Parmatma). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
One should take care of one's own [True] Self and do supervision of everything else. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Without 'Gnan' (True Knowledge of the Self), desire(s) will not go away. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
There are two types of egoism: one is living and other one is lifeless. As long as the living egoism is there, one can never attain the awareness of the Self (Atma). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The body is doing the action, body's spare-parts are doing the action and the egoism simply does the egoism of, 'I did'! Subtle-pride of egoism is created from this doer-ship and one is living due entirely on this basis. He simply tastes the subtle-pride of doer-ship; 'I did', 'I suffered this pain', 'I enjoyed that happiness'. The person who gets rid of this subtle-pride will get freedom. Why does one taste this sweetness of subtle-pride of doership from infinite lives? He does this because he has never before tasted the sweetness of the Soul. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
It is wrong to be dependent on the body-complex [pudgal]. One should depend only on the Soul. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
If Brahman an infinite ocean, then Atma a wave within be,
Ocean not different from its waves, the waves as ocean be;
They are but one and the same very similar in actuality,
So Brahman and Atma are one and the same in reality.
960 ~ Munindra Misra
Atma quotes by Munindra Misra
What is the body complex (pudgal)? It is influx and outflow (puran-galan); it is credit and debit. And if you attain knowledge of the Soul, the Self, then you will attain Moksha (liberation). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
My-ness (mamta) is indeed parigrah [attachment to material objects]; material object is not a parigrah. Gnani doesn't have My-ness (mamata), He has the eternal element (experience of Pure Soul). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
If one understands (realizes) his own Self, then he himself is an Absolute Supreme Soul (Parmatma). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Soul (Atma), Absolute Knowledge (Gnan) and the Absolute Supreme Soul (Parmatma) are one and the same element. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
God is reflected in your heart as your Spirit, called as Atma. Unless and until your attention reaches that Spirit, talking about it, doing anything about it, it's absolutely useless. You have to be really born again. It's an actualization, which should take place. ~ Nirmala Srivastava
Atma quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
Soul (Atma) remains very far from where kashays (anger-pride-deceit-greed) are created, the Soul is quite far from there. Where there is absence of kashays, there lies the 'religion of Vitrags (the enlightened ones)', and where kashays are present, lies the 'relative religion'! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
If you experience bliss of the Self (samadhi) amidst complete problematic stage, then know that you have met a "Gnani Purush" [the enlightened one]! ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Only when there is dharmadhyan (auspicious contemplation; to not hurt anyone, to give happiness to others) in the body, then there is shukladhyan in the Self (contemplation as the Self, the Soul). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Who is doing this? Who am I? What is all this? Who is the doer? Who is the nimit (instrumental doer) of this? If all these remain present 'at a time' exactly the way it is, then that is considered shuddha upayog (pure focused applied awareness of the Self, the Soul). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Abhorrence towards bitter circumstances and attachment towards sweet ones is the nature of agnan (ignorance of the self). Bitter and sweet will not exist if agnan (ignorance of the self) leaves. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
What is suspicion? It is a tool to ruin one's own Soul. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Knowledge of all living beings of the entire world is in only one Soul. But the knowledge that sees the ego and everything, as objects to be known (gneya); only that knowledge is called as the 'Knowledge'. However, that is partial Knowledge but only from that moment it is regarded as real applied focused awareness. Where there is Knowledge, the focused applied awareness may be partial or complete. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The ego dies and the ego lives, but people say that 'I died'. That which takes birth and dies is the ego, and the Soul is in the same place (is always intact). Even Pudgal (the atoms that were charged; which are being discharged in the form of mind, body, speech) is in the same place. The issue is only of the ego in the middle. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The energy of the Soul (Atma) is such that it will give you all the solution for how to behave every time in any situation. And what is more, you will not forget it, after the Self [Soul] has been realized. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The 'knowledge' (gnan) that was resulting into 'the things to be known' (gneya); when that 'knowledge' results in the 'Knower' (gnata); this is known as Self-Realization [Atma Gnan]. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The world is but a show, glittering and empty. It is, and yet it is not. It is there as long as I want to see it and take part in it. When I cease caring, it dissolves. It has no cause and serves no purpose. It just happens when we are absent-minded. It appears exactly as it looks, but there is no depth in it, nor meaning. Only the onlooker is real, call him Self or Atma. To the Self, the world is but a colorful show, which he enjoys as long as it lasts and forgets when it is over. Whatever happens on the stage makes him shudder in terror or roll with laughter, yet all the time he is aware that it is but a show. Without desire or fear, he enjoys it, as it happens. ~ Nisargadatta Maharaj
Atma quotes by Nisargadatta Maharaj
A reputable person is he who has trust in his own Self. Self means who? "I am Pure Soul", it is that Self. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Religion (dharma) is decrease in kashay (anger, pride, deceit and greed) and increase of kashay is irreligion (adharma). When Kashay goes away (completely) is the religion of the Self (Soul). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
How much straight forward you are; that much bliss of the Self (Samadhi) will prevail within you. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
The one who protects the body-complex (pudgal) is not the 'enlightened one' (Gnani). A Gnani is the protector of only the Soul and it's natural attributes. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
One enjoyed the mental pleasures through ignorance (of the Self), and that is cause of the worldly life. Only the bliss of the 'Knowledge' [of the Soul, one's True Self] is to be enjoyed. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
In scriptures, there is knowledge about the different methods; the knowledge about the goal [to attain Pure Soul] is not there. 'Gnani' has the knowledge about the goal [to attain Pure Soul]. Knowledge about the goal, which is the Soul, is obtained as a result of the 'Gnani's' grace. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Bowing down in prayer to a body results in worldly life and bowing down in prayer to Soul results in attaining moksha (final liberation). ~ Dada Bhagwan
Atma quotes by Dada Bhagwan
