HINDU WISDOM

The word "Philosophy" is derived from the Ancient Greek - philosophía (compounded from phílos: friend, or lover and sophía: wisdom). To quote from WikiPedia, "Philosophy is the discipline concerned with the questions of what is the right way to live (ethics), what sorts of things ultimately exist and what are their essential natures (metaphysics), what is to count as genuine knowledge (epistemology), and what are the correct principles of reasoning (logic).

HINDU WISDOM

The light of Brahman flashes in lightning; The light of Brahman flashes in our eyes. It is the power of Brahman that makes The mind to think, desire, and will. Therefore Use this power to meditate on Brahman. He is the inmost Self of everyone; He alone is worthy of all our love. Meditate upon him in all. Those who Meditate upon him are dear to all.

- Kena Upanishad


Every time I hear the word exercise, I wash my mouth out with soap.

- ThinkExist

Here's a task: Be the bearer of only good news today. In living out this task, note whether you find it difficult to maintain. And if so, discover why within yourself.

- Caroline Myss and Peter Occhiogrosso


Being observant of God is an act of devotion towards God. Sleep is an act of God drawing us near. That which is conferred upon us by God without our choice is positively superior to that which we send to Him. Sleep therefore is a wonderful gift of God bestowed upon His creatures.

- Junyayd, "The Kashf al-Mahjub"
