· “God lives and breathes in all. We are Americans or have some other nationality for just a few years, but we are God’s children forever. The soul cannot be confined within man-made boundaries. It’s nationality is Spirit. It’s country is omnipresence.” - Paramahansa Yogananda
· “Practice loving those who do not love you. Feel for those who do not feel for you. Be generous to those who are generous only to themselves. If you heap hatred on your enemy, neither he nor you are able to perceive the inherent beauty of your soul.” - Paramahansa Yogananda
· “Relatives are those whom we think of as our own. To love our relatives trains us in expanding our consciousness and helps us practice loving all people as our relatives in God. For relatives and strangers are all equally God’s children. If you limit your love to your own direct family, you have Christ consciousness to only that limited degree. When you love your neighbour as your wider family, you express more of Christ consciousness.” - Paramahansa Yogananda
· “Love must never remain circumscribed in littleness. Through the gates of friendship, conjugal affection, parental love, and the love of one’s fellow beings and all animate creatures, we can enter into the kingdom of Divine Love.” - Paramahansa Yogananda
