Quotes by Swami Chidananda

The intelligent student, after studying vedic texts, is solely intent on acquiring wisdom and realization.

He should discard the texts altogether, as the man who seeks rice discards the husk.

Quote

"You know why you are doing something. And if it is against your life, your principles and ideals it is bothersome. And no one wants to be bothered. So you conveniently try to curtain it off, turn a blind eye, and put it out of sight so that it won't bother you. This is what the Mind does."
