QUOTE OF THE DAY

ExpansionJune 13

Eternity yawns at me below, above, on the left and on the right, in front and behind, within and without.

With open eyes I behold myself as the little body. With closed eyes I perceive myself as the cosmic centre around which revolves the sphere of eternity, the sphere of bliss, the sphere of omniscient, living space.

– Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda
