Six essential qualities that are the key to success: Sincerity, personal integrity, humility, courtesy, wisdom, charity.

~ William Menninger

If you cannot love your brother whom you have seen,how can you love God whom you have never seen ? You cannot be selective in your forgiveness,in your kindness,in your tolerance.If you can extend this charitable nature to an impossible person,then you will know that it is possible to extend it towards everyone.

~ Swami Chidananda

AN INSTRUMENT OF THY PEACE/Swami Chidananda in the West

"Every good act is charity. A man's true wealth hereafter is the good that he does in this world to his fellows."
— Moliere

"The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service."
— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"Where there is charity and wisdom, there is neither fear nor ignorance. Where there is patience and humility, there is neither anger nor vexation. Where there is poverty [contentment?] and joy, there is neither greed nor avarice. Where there is peace and meditation, there is neither anxiety nor doubt."

~ Saint Francis of Assisi

"0" man, know ye that renunciation is the law of life. Renunciation is the path that leads to friendliness, co‑operation and unity. Renounce selfishness, greed, hatred and egoism. Embrace love, humility, contentment and charity. You will have Rama Rajya or the Kingdom of Heaven here upon earth, right now.
~Swami Sivananda
