Wisdom Quote by Paul Brunton — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The source of wisdom and power, of love and beauty, is within ourselves, but not within our egos. It is within our consciousness.

“He is beginning to master wisdom when he tries to learn how not to try.”

“When every situation which life can offer is turned to the profit of spiritual growth, no situation can really be a bad one.”

“Every time we choose our past over our present we kill our future.”

“Worry is not a weakness to overcome, but a message to understand.”
