It may sound paradoxical, but however tight our schedule, however many things clamor to be done, we don’t need to hurry.

Like Gandhi, like the Buddha, like all great spiritual teachers, Easwaran had no use for beliefs unless they generated actions. Doing, not saying, is what counts (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
The Lord is a good psychologist: he knows the way our minds run. Turmoil can be the Lord’s way of tapping us on the shoulder and saying, ‘Don’t forget me.’ (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
An unhurried mind brings the capacity to make wise choices every day - choices of how we use our time, of where we place our resources and our love. I am not just talking about avoiding the rat race, but about a life full of an artistic beauty - a life that has almost vanished from modern civilization, but is quite within the reach of everyone (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
The spiritual life is a call to action. But it is a call to ... action without any selfish attachment to the results (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Patience can’t be acquired overnight. It is just like building up a muscle. Every day you need to work on it. (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Today, everything I do from morning meditation on - eating breakfast, going for a walk, writing, reading, even recreation - is governed by one purpose only: how to give the very best account of my life that I can in the service of all. (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
When someone at peace and free from hurry enters a room, that person has a calming effect on everyone present. (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
This is the central principle of meditation: we become what we meditate on (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Wisdom may be perennial, but to see its relevance we must see it lived out (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
The ancestor of every destructive action, every destructive decision, is a negative thought (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
When we truly are putting others first, we cannot but feel at peace with ourselves (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
We become in part what our senses take in (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Whatever we have done, we can always make amends for it without ever looking back in guilt or sorrow (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Patience can’t be acquired overnight. It is just like building up a muscle. Every day you need to work on it (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Through meditation and by giving full attention to one thing at a time, we can learn to direct attention where we choose (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Love is so exquisitely elusive. It cannot be bought, cannot be badgered, cannot be hijacked. It is available only in one rare form: as the natural response of a healthy mind and healthy heart (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
At the beginning of every winter people are careful to install storm windows. These extra panes of glass protect their houses against the bitter winds. We do something very similar to protect our minds through the practice of meditation (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Human relationships are the perfect tool for sanding away our rough edges and getting at the core of divinity within us (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
As meditation deepens, compulsions, cravings and fits of emotion begin to lose their power to dictate our behavior. We see clearly that choices are possible; we can say yes or we can say no. It is profoundly liberating (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
As we get deeper, we move closer and closer to other people; we feel closer to life as a whole (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
The things we think about, brood on, dwell on, and exult over influence our life in a thousand ways. When we can actually choose the direction of our thoughts instead of just letting them run along the grooves of conditioned thinking, we become the masters of our own lives (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Nothing really worth having comes quickly and easily. If it did, I doubt that we would ever grow (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
A calm mind releases the most precious capacity a human being can have: the capacity to turn anger into compassion, fear into fearlessness, and hatred into love (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
God made the senses turn outwards, man therefore looks outwards, not into himself. But occasionally a daring soul, desiring immortality, has looked back and found himself (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
Instead of looking at difficulties as deprivations, we can learn to recognize them as opportunities for deepening and widening our love (Eknath Easwaran Quotes)
