“In trying so hard to win, we have instead become exactly like those whom we hate. The key is to know that there is no need to exert an effort to win; for we were already winners in the beginning when we were not like them. It's when we try so hard to overcome them that we become like them, without realizing that we were already victors in the very beginning.”
C. JoyBell C.

Rabindranath Tagore
“To understand anything is to find in it something which is our own, and it is the discovery of ourselves outside us which makes us glad. This relation of understanding is partial, but the relation of love is complete. In love the sense of difference is obliterated and the human soul fulfils its purpose in perfection, transcending the limits of itself and reaching across the threshold of the infinite. Therefore love is the highest bliss that man can attain to, for through it alone he truly knows that he is more than himself, and that he is at one with the All.”
Rabindranath Tagore, Sadhana

“The mind and brain enable us to be aware of the thoughts and actions that seem to arise and fall, but they do not create consciousness. They are effects of consciousness. All that comes and goes does so within this soup of consciousness.”
Vic Shayne, Consciousness: The Potentiality of All Existence: Exploring reality and belief as a subjective experience
