Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Quotes about Universe

  • All speech, action and behavior are fluctuations of consciousness. All life emerges from, and is sustained in, consciousness. The whole universe is the expression of consciousness. The reality of the universe is one unbounded ocean of consciousness in motion.
  • Adopt the standard of perfection, because it is a perfect universe.
  • Just as a mountain of snow is nothing but water, so also the whole universe is nothing but bliss.
  • The constitution of the universe is total natural law. 'Natural law,' we say from the field of science. 'Will of God,' we say from the field of religion. It's the same thing.
  • Master of the universe is every man's potential insight, cosmic potential.
