  "The
Sadguru is Brahman Himself. He is an ocean of bliss, knowledge,
and mercy. He is the captain of your soul. He is the fountain of
joy. He removes all your troubles, sorrows, and obstacles. He
shows you the right divine path.""Guru is God. A word from him is a word from God. He need not-teach anything. Even his presence or company is elevating, inspiring, and stirring, His very company is self-illumination. Living in his company is spiritual education." "Guru is the Moksha-dvara (door to liberation). He is the gateway to the transcendental Truth-Consciousness. But, it is the aspirant who has to enter through it. The, Guru is a help, but the actual task of practical Sadhana (spiritual practice) falls on the aspirant himself."- Swami Sivananda << More>> Sivananda Ashtotra Shata Namavali Dev Dev Sivananda.........................(audio clip)
" By
the light of the sun, the whole world awakens.
By the light of the sun, darkness is banished, slumber
gives place to Thus the sun is the awakener; the sun is the enlightener; the sun is the marga darsaka (one who shows the path). It is the sun that guarantees smooth, unhampered progress towards each one’s destination. When the sun is not there, one is, as it were, blind, even though having eyes. In the life of a sincere seeking soul, in the life of jijnasu, a mumukshu, a sadhaka, a spiritual aspirant, the Guru is as it were, the Sun"......<<More>> Swami Chidananda
"Whatever is seen or heard around us in this universe contains Prana inside them. Prana is the sum total of energy, alertness and consciousness. Prana is the most subtle. Breath is the external appearance of Prana. We can control subtle Prana after controlling physical Prana. It means by controlling external, physical and visible Pranic capacity, subtle inner consciousness can be controlled. All the functions
of our body are connected with one another. The body is
connected with Prana, Prana with senses, senses with mind, and
mind with intelligence. Paramtattva is separate and not
understandable by intelligence as it is beyond it. There are no
words. (Yato Vacho Nivartante Aprapya Manasa Sah.) It can be
obtained by continuous practice of Pranayama. It is not physical
so it is not sensible."

"Guru, God and Self are one."
"The grace of the Guru is like an ocean. If one comes with a cup he will only get a cupful. It is no use complaining of the niggardliness of the ocean. The bigger the vessel the more one will be able to carry. It is entirely up to him." "What is the nature of Guru's grace? It
is beyond thought and word. Then how can it
be said that the devotee realises his true
Being by virtue of the Guru's grace? It is
like the elephant which wakes up on seeing a
lion in its dream. Even as the elephant
wakes up at the mere sight of the lion, so
too is it certain that the disciple wakes up
from the sleep of ignorance to the knowledge
of Real. It is true and certain." -
