daily life

Questioner: How can I go through my devotional practices when I have always to think of my daily bread?

Sri Ramakrishna: He for whom you work will supply you with your necessaries. God made provisions for your support before He sent you into this world.

love

When you say to a woman or a man,
 ’I love you’ , you are simply saying,
’I cannot be deceived 
by your body, I have seen you. 
Your body may become old but 
I have seen you, the bodiless you. 
I have seen your innermost core, 
the core that is divine.’ 

Liking is superficial.

Love penetrates and goes to the very core 
of the person, touches the very soul 
of the person. 

No love is ordinary. 
Love cannot be ordinary, 
otherwise it is not love. 
To call love ordinary is to misunderstand 
the whole phenomenon of love.

Love is never ordinary; 
love is always extraordinary, 
always spiritual.

God

❓ Do you seek God? Then seek Him in man. His divinity is manifest more in man, than in any other object. Look around for a man, whose heart overflows with the love of God; a man, who lives, moves and has his being in God - a man intoxicated with His love. In such a man God manifests Himself.
