Quotes about Time by Radhanath Swami

  • Soul is like the moon. All the situations in our lives, relationships, youth etc. are like the clouds. Time is like the wind. Just like the wind moves the clouds, time moves all the situations in our life. But the soul is always the same. So we should focus on the eternal soul and not on the temporary situations. One who focuses on the soul is a moon like person.
  • Every time we make an immoral choice, we become more addicted to immorality.
  • If one is serious about making spiritual advancement, one must discipline his time.
  • We can only know to the extent that God reveals to us. Because factually, whatever we see, by the time it comes to our consciousness, it’s filtered through our contaminated mind and our bewildered ego. So what really can we know in truth? This is the condition of the soul.
  • To achieve success in our lives, we need strength beyond ourselves and association of sincere souls. We also need to resolve to take shelter of the holy names of God and soberly remember that today we are one year closer to death. At the same time we need to meditate on our purpose in life and that will guarantee an eternal life, beyond the temporary existence of this world.
