DISPEL DARKNESS

RAJEEV MALIK –“India’s economic reforms remain a story of incremental changes at a glacial pace.”

RAJENDRA PRASAD –“It is not altogether impossible for man to achieve happiness without the usual paraphernalia, which passes for his everyday necessities… It was by practising ‘simple living and high thinking’ that Mahatma Gandhi could enjoy that happiness which a humble follower of his is unable to have even in the palatial Rashtrapati Bhavan. Let us be sure that our will to progress and rise high will materialise in the true sense only after we have realised that the source of our happiness does not lie outside us but is enshrined within our own: hearts.” (1st PRESTDEN)

RAJINDER SINGH JI –“Where there is love, there is no anger. Where there is love, there is no lust. Where there is love, there is no greed. Where there is love, there is no attachment. And where there is love, there is no ego.”

RALPH CHARELL –“It is thought cooperation and consultation that conflicts can be resolved with success.”

RALPH ELLISON –“When I discover who I am, I’ll be free.”

RALPH W. EMERSON –“What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.”

RAM CHANDRA –“The hard and fast rules of life and tiring practices prescribed by teachers for realization have really made matters so complicated that people are led to believe it to be beyond their power and capacity… Iron will to achieve the goal together with proper means and guidance is the only thing required for complete success.”

RAM DAS –“Ramdas from his own experience can boldly assert that there is God. Until you yourself get the experience, it is natural that you should deny Him. But a time will come when you too will have faith in Him.”

RAM KRISHAN PARAMHANSA-“It a thorn has entered your feet, get another thorn to take out the first, then the row away the second.”

Ego means self-esteem, pride, vanity etc. To lead a successful worldly life, self-esteem is a positive virtue, but vanity is a negative quality for spiritual practice, ego is the barrier and should be crushed.”

RAMA DAS –“First a person should learn to lead a life of righteousness, discharge one’s duties to self and neighbours and then think of the other (spiritual) side of life. One who strives to establish Dharma is alone a godly person.”

RAMCHANDRA GANDHI –“Only when we misconstrue nothingness as a limitless something, and misconstrue ourselves as limited things, Buddha says, does nothingness appear to us as a devouring, annihilatory, malevolence. Nihilism and egotism preached by Keshakambalin and Goshala are merely caricatures of Nirvana and self-realisation… A rediscovery of pauranika wisdom in general may close the gap between life and thought, aboriginality and advaita (so that) the embrace of Guha and Rama becomes visible and intelligible and irresistible again… “

RAMCHANDRA GANDHI –“We don’t know what our birth is like, we don’t know death, but everyone remembers his childhood and associated with childhood is the feminine figure, a mother or a dai. We have forgotten the girl child as being the reflection of the Atman.”

In order that we fulfil our role in the divine play we must behave within our Dharma. That is, we ought to do the right thing, at the right time, in the right way, and for the right reason. By this we attain balance.”

RAMESH S BALSEKAR –“True meditation is when, by the grace of God and the destiny of the individual, gradually the meditator disappears into meditation so that at the end of the meditation there is no remnant of any ego doing meditation with expectation.”

RAMOLA KUMAR –“ You are there, hence am I, You are in me and hence I in you, There be none else within, without, All around I sense your presence So permanent yet so transient.

RANDALL MCBRIDE –“Success will not lower its standard to us. We must raise our standard to success.”

RANDLE COTGRAVE –“Fools are wise until they speak.”

RANI RAOTE –“Perhaps it is time to review our life and relationships to make the changes we have been putting off for another time. In addition to working on relationships, it can also be a time to work on inculcating deep spiritual beliefs which can anchor us in emotionally difficult times.”

RAPHAEL –“The particular event thing giving you happiness and well-being did not belong to an absolute reality but to a relative, contingent truth. Now do you want fleeting, discontinuous happiness that comes and goes, or do you want to be constant bliss?”

REBAMCENTIRE –“For me, singing sad songs often has a way of healing a situation. It gets the hurt out in the open into the light, out of the darkness.”

REBEKAH FAITH –“When you have an idea in your head, you have created. When you write it down, you give it the breath of life. When an idea is free, it lives. You have created. It is exponentially easier to destroy than create. The cycle is an endless one. One destruction dominoes to another, one creation creates another it is an endless cycle—from the beginning of time until the end. So anything that is done must be done with consciousness and awareness, lest one destroys while trying to create.”

REHANA HAKIM –“We are here to see ground reality…the only way to serve the people of India and Pakistan is to provide to all the true picture of happenings on both sides.”

REINHOLD NIEBUHR –“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”

REINHOLD NIEBUHR- “Man’s capacity for justice makes democracy possible, but man’s inclinations to injustice makes democracy necessary.”

REINHOLD NIEBUHR –“Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime, Therefore, we are saved by hope. Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; Therefore, we are saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone. Therefore, we are saved by love. No virtuous act is quite a virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own; Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.”

REMA BINDU –“It’s the run-up to the annual pilgrimage to Sabarimala temple, the shrine of Lord Ayyappa. Ideally, austerities (vrutham) are followed for 41 days when the devotee leads a simple and pious life. Vrutham starts from the day the devotee wears the Tuisi or Rudraksha mala (chain) with a locket of Lord Ayyappa and continues till he makes a pilgrimage to Sabarimala and removes the mala. He is called ‘Ayyappan’ or ‘Swami’ as he keeps his mind and body clean and pure, refraining from worldly pleasures. Care is taken to not hurt anyone.

REUBEN FINE –“Combinations have always been the most intriguing aspect of Chess. The masters look for them, the public applauds them, the critics praise them.

RICHARD CARLSON –“Many people don’t allow themselves to be enthusiastic, lighthearted, inspired, relaxed, or happy — especially at work. It seems they are frightened at what a happy demeanour would be like to other people, including co-workers, clients, and employers.

ROBIN GREEN –“I started concentrating so hard on my vision that I lost sight”

ROBIN S SHARMA –“A new question has arisen in modern man’s mind, the question, namely, whether life is worth living… No sensible answer can be given to the question…because the question does not make any sense. Discipline ‘tough love’ because getting tough with yourself is actually a very loving gesture… The tougher you are on yourself, the easier life will be on you… When you consistently flex your will power by making choices that you know are the right ones — rather than the easy ones— you take control of your life. Who will cry when you die?”

ROD Mc KUEN –“A soulmate is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you forgotten the words.”

ROGE BOESCHE –“Kautilyamthe, Arthasastra offers wideranging… discussions on war and diplomacy, including… the king’s willingness to make treaties he knew he ‘would break, his doctrine of silent war.. his approval of secret agents who killed enemy leaders and sowed discord among them, his view of women as weapons of war, his use of religion and superstition to bolster his ^’troops and demoralize enemy soldiers, the spread of disinformation, and his humane treatment of conquered, soldiers and subjects..”

ROGER BABSON –“It is wise to keep in mind that neither success nor failure is ever final.”

ROGER CARAS –“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”

ROGER CASEMENT –“Where all your rights become only an accumulated wrong; where men must beg with bated breath for leave to subsist in their own land, to think then- own thoughts, to sing their own songs, to garner the fruits of their own labors… then surely it is a braver, a saner and truer thing, to be a rebel in act and deed against such circumstances as these than tamely to accept it as the natural lot of men.”

ROGER DAWSON –“Have you blamed people or factors outside of yourself? It’s important to understand that all problems are rooted inside us. Even the blocks that appear to be outside of us are only reflecting back an issue we have inside that we have not yet owned. Once we address our inner issue, the outer situation no longer troubles us.”

All we who are dead below Have become bones and ashes, but nothing else. I have spoken to you honestly, go on, traveller, Lest even while dead seem loquacious to you,”

ROMANS –“God will credit righteousness — for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.”

ROSABETH MOSS KANTER –“To stay ahead, you must have your next idea waiting in the wings.”

ROSALIE WRIGHT –“January is the quietest month in the garden… But just because it looks quiet doesn’t mean that nothing is happening. The soil, open to the sky, absorbs the pure rainfall, while micro-organisms convert tilled-under fodder into usable nutrients for the next crop of plants. The feasting earthworms tunnel along, aerating the soil and preparing it to welcome the seeds and bare roots to come.”

ROSANNE CASH –“The key to change… is to let go of fear.”

ROSE FRANKEN –“Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.”

ROSEMARY VEREY “Colours change: in the morning light, red shines out bright and clear and the blues merge into their surroundings, melting into the greens; but by evening the reds lose their piquancy, embracing a quieter tone and shifting towards the blues in the rainbow. Yellow flowers remain bright, and white ones become luminous, shining like ghostly figures against a darkening green background.”

RUDOLF STEINER –“Meditation is the way to knowing and beholding the eternal, indestructible, essential centre of our being.”

RUDOLPH VALENTINO –“I am beginning to look more and more like my miserable imitators.”

RUSKIN BOND –“Fields make way for factories, The trees succumb To real-estate, The rivers plunge Silt laden To our doom… Too late to do a thing About it now, For we have grown Too many, And the world’s no bigger Than before. Do-gooders, don’t despair! Nature will repair Her own, long after We are dust.”

RYOKWDN –“The past is already past; the future is not yet here. The present never abides; Things are constantly changing, with nothing on which to depend…”

RYONIN –“One man is identical with all and all with one. One religious practice is the same as all others, and all others the same as any one of them. This is what explains the experience of birth into the Pure Land by reliance upon Amida’s power. All living beings are included in one thought.”

S J PERELMAN –“Learning is what most adults will do for a living in the 21st century.”

S K VASISHTA –“Life dances upon death, Death dances upon life. No one wins and no one loses. For there are participants; all are spectators, all are moving, all are silent. There is neither birth nor death in Creation. No success and no failure, No coming, no going. Water extinguishes fire and fire evaporates water. Both turn into air and air is now fire and now water. Nothing perishes and nothing is born, For Creation is always a continuous ‘is’.”

S PAUL –“Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“After urging worldly considerations, Krishna declares that the task has to be undertaken in a spirit of equal-mindedness. Without yielding to the restless desire for change, without being at the mercy of emotional ups and downs, let us do the work assigned to us in the situation in which we are placed.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“Dama or self-restraint, dana or self-sacrifice, and day a or compassion help us free ourselves from the sway of craving, greed and anger. When the Buddha asks us to put out in our hearts the monstrous fires of infatuation, greed and resentment, he is emphasising the three virtues enjoined by the Upanishads.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“Dharma literally means mode of being. It is the essential nature of a being that determines its mode of behaviour So long as our conduct is in conformity with our essential nature, we are acting in the right way Adharma is nonconformity to our nature. If the harmony of the world is derived from the conformity of all beings to their respective natures, the disharmony of the world is due to their nonconformity God does not stand aside, when we abuse our freedom and cause disequilibrium. He does not simply wind up the world, set if on the right track and then let it jog along by itself. His loving hand is steering it all the time.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“Human nature is not altogether unchanging but it does remain sufficiently constant to justify the study of ancient classics.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“Liberation pre-supposes bondage and in most people even this awareness is not there. Self-awareness is possible only in human beings, and knowledge and education are the sources of making one Self-conscious. The sociological definition of educationas ‘that which rescues the individual from the mass of collectivity and gives him an identity’ contributes to the development of ego and conflict. Formal education creates roles for the individual without developing his personality”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“No one knows the father except the son as only one who loves deeply has an insight into the true nature of God as father, whose character is suffering love.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“The truly great men are not the men of wealth, not men who gain name and fame, but those who testify to the truth in them and refuse to compromise whatever the cost… We may punish their bodies, refuse them comforts, but we cannot buy their souls, we cannot break their spirits. Whoever possesses this invulnerability of spirit even to a little extent deserves our admiration.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“The worst sinner has a future, even as the greatest saint has had a past. No one is so good or so bad as he imagines.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“What looms over us is no dark fate but our own past.”

S RADHAKRISHNAN –“Without yielding to the restless desire for change, without being at the mercy of emotional ups and downs, let us do the work assigned to us in the situation in which we are placed. When we acquire faith in the Eternal and experience Its reality, the sorrows of the world do not disturb us. He who discovers his true end of life and yields to it utterly is great of soul.”

S SAHATMA GANDHI –“It is a sin to open free kitchens for those who are capable of physical labour. To provide work for them is meritorious… When a man lives in submission to any authority, it means he is paying the price of personal freedom.”

S. WHITE –“If ignorance is bliss, why aren’t there more happy people?”

S.N. BEHRAM –“At the end of every road you meet yourself.”

S.P. CADMAN-“We can see a thousand miracles around us everyday. What is more supernatural than an egg yolk turning into a chicken?”
