Words of Yogananda and Kriyananda

This mini-blog is just to record short quotes of Yogananda and Kriyananda in a less formal manner than the ananda.org web site or even the blog A Place Called Ananda. For more in depth information click on one of these links I just mentioned.
Sun Sep 6
Sept. 7. Speak from a center of inner silence. Too much chatter is anesthetizing. A man in Calcutta once asked a young man, “My boy, are you married?” “What do you mean, Am I married? I’m married to your own daughter!” “Oh, I know, I know. I just wanted something to say, and could think of nothing else.” Wouldn’t the older man have done better, in this case, simply to be silent? When you speak from the heart of silence, everything you say will be worthwhile. Swami Kriyananda writing as J Donald Walters in hs new, soon to be published book “Do It Well”
