Quotes about Master

Become the master of your life and invoke your deepest potential

When a work lifts your spirits and inspires bold and noble thoughts in you, do not look for any other standard to judge it by: the work is good, the product of a master craftsman.

Zen's greatest contribution is to give you an alternative to the serious man. The serious man has made the world, the serious man has made all the religions. He has created all the philosophies, all the cultures, all the moralities; everything that exists around you is a creation of the serious man. Zen has dropped out of the serious world. It has created a world of its own which is very playful, full of laughter, where even great masters behave like children.

Re-examine all you have been told in school or church or in any book,
and dismiss whatever insults your own soul... 
It is also not consistent with the reality of the soul to admit that there is anything
in the known universe more divine than men and women.
The master knows that he is unspeakably great and that all are unspeakably great. 
There will soon be no more priests... They may wait awhile, perhaps a generation or two,
dropping off by degrees. A superior breed shall take their place.
A new order shall arise and they shall be the priests of man,
and every man shall be his own priest.

"The master and the student on the journey to mastery, knows that the illusions are the illusions, decides why they are there, and then consciously creates what will be experienced next within the self through the illusions. When facing any life experience, there is a formula, a process, through which you may choose to move through mastery. Simply make the following statements: One, nothing in my world is real. Two, The meaning of everything is the meaning I give it. Three, I am who I say I am, and my experience is what I say it is. This is how to work with the illusions of life."

A Master is not defined by how many pupils he has.... but by how many masters he makes of them

Q: What is your opinion of the Masters of the Himalayas?

A: There is a great Master of Masters, the Indweller of your
heart. Turn the gaze inwards, withdraw the Indriyas and seek His
help. Rest in Him. Identify yourself with Him. Search Him in your
heart. Don't talk to me of these Himalayan Masters in future. You
will be deluded.

The real seeker of truth never seeks truth. On the contrary, he tries to clean himself of all that is untrue, inauthentic, insincere - and when his heart is ready, purified, the guest comes. You cannot find the guest, you cannot go after him. He comes to you; you just have to be prepared. You have to be in a right attitude.

Master

Don't ask my master for a quick fix,
there are no band aids for these wounds,
Instead he will give your heart a check up for free,
And tell you why it shuts down ,
when it should be singing for joy.

Don't ask my master to shed a tear for you,
Infact his eyes may even seem to playfully mock you,
'Cause his heart is already bleeding ,
for the unncessary load of pain that you carry.

Don't ask my master to bless you,
He has no time for it,
And in any case his hands are busy,
going up in gratitude on your behalf.

 How can one know who his spiritual teacher is?...His heart looks at the spiritual Masters and makes the choice. When the heart sees a spiritual Master, if it is overwhelmed with joy, then there is every probability that that spiritual Master is the right one for the seeker.

Your son is at five your master, at ten your servant, at fifteen your double, and after that, your friend or foe, depending on his bringing up.

The temple of perfection is inherent within, therefore the temple within is inherently perfect.

May the Lord of day grant us peace.
May the Lord of night grant us peace.
May the Lord of sight grant us peace.
May the Lord of might grant us peace.
May the Lord of speech grant us peace.
May the Lord of space grant us peace.
I bow down to Brahman, source of all power.
I will speak the truth and follow the law.
Guard me and my teacher against all harm.
Guard me and my teacher against all harm.

Love is a better master than duty.

Revere your teacher as you revere Heaven.

I will greet this day with love in my heart.  For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Muscles can split a shield and even destroy life itself but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of man.   And until I master this act I will remain no more than a peddler in the marketplace. I will make love my greatest weapon and none on who I call can defend upon its force...my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest day.

Believe you know all the answers and you know all the answers. Believe you're a master and you are.

If You Don't Like Your Faith

Change it

You are Your Own Master

There are no Shackles on You

So don't expect any petty or understanding
