“Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and pain, fame and disripute, these are just the worldly winds of existence.”
“Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all”
“Even as a solid rock is unshaken by the wind, so are the wise unshaken by praise or blame.”
“No praise, no blame. Just so.”
“If a householder is a genuine devotee, he performs his duties without attachment; he surrenders the fruit of his work to God - his gain or loss, his pleasure or pain. Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna (Abridged)”
“Our world was created with a sense of order. For every loss, there is a gain. Sometimes we are so blinded by the loss that we don't see the gain, don't recognize the gift.”
