Sri Aurobindo Quotes

Pay more attention to the silence than to the sounds. Paying attention to outer silence creates inner silence: the mind becomes still. A portal is opening up.

Stop, stop. Do not speak. The ultimate truth is not even to think.

Let silence take you to the core of life.

Truth is not found by knowledge, it is found by silence. And knowledge is noisy.

Except witnessing, I don't teach anything else. So just witness your mind and the meditation will be happening. And once you have got in tune with your being, you know the way, you know the how.

You can simply close your eyes and disappear inwards.

Ground yourself, strip yourself down, To blind loving Silence

Silence is the space where man wakes up.

Roaring dreams take place in a perfectly silent mind. Now that we know this, throw the raft away.

Where music thundered let the mind be still, Where the will triumphed let there be no will, What light revealed, now let the dark fulfill.

But let me have silence always, in the centre of the shouting—that is essential! Let me have silence so that no pin may drop and not be heard, and not a whisper escape us for all our spouting, nor the needle's scratching upon this gramophone of a circular cosmic spot. Hear me! Mark me! Learn me! Throw the mind's ear open—shut up the mind's eye—all will be music!

Attain utmost emptiness. Abide in steadfast stillness.

Still the bubbling mind; herein lies freedom and bliss eternal.

Dive deep into the chambers of your heart. Find out the real, infinite 'I'. Rest there peacefully for ever and become identical with the Supreme Self.
