The earliest preoccupation of man in his awakened thoughts and, as it seems, his inevitable and ultimate preoccupation,—for it survives the longest periods of scepticism and returns after every banishment,—is also the highest which his thought can envisage. It manifests itself in the divination of Godhead, the impulse towards perfection, the search after pure Truth and unmixed Bliss, the sense of a secret immortality. The ancient dawns of human knowledge have left us their witness to this constant aspiration; today we see a humanity satiated but not satisfied by victorious analysis of the externalities of Nature preparing to return to its primeval longings. The earliest formula of Wisdom promises to be its last, — God, Light, Freedom, Immortality.

Sri Aurobindo – “The Life Divine” (1939)

We get the profile of the enemy that we make for ourselves.

Rebellion is a seed, creation is a fruit.

Values are priceless.

When a conflict occurs, half way toward its resolution is done once the nature of the problem and the nature of its participants have been separated.

The middle way, far from comforting rules, can be met only through a dialog with God.

Center is everywhere.

Action precedes intention.

Atheism is the religion of materialism.

Your friend is not necessarily a sage, a sage is necessarily your friend.

The future is a work of art.

He who sees the foreigner in the other is a foreigner to himself.

The problem with values is you need to already possess them in order to desire them.

Follow the blissipline.

The fool is a fool before God, the sage is a fool before men.

When you undertake something, know that you will have against you:
those who wanted to make the same thing,
those who wanted the opposite,
and the vast majority of those who wanted to do nothing…

– Confucius
