Feeling Lost? 5 Timeless Dharmic Quotes to Guide You Through Life’s In-Between Spaces.

For those between cycles, seeking clarity and quiet rebirth:

There is a sacred space between endings and beginnings, where you may feel directionless, uninspired, or even disoriented.

In yogic wisdom, this is known as the fertile void, the potent pause where creation takes root. The space of not knowing is also the space where truth begins to rise.

Here are 5 powerful steps and timeless quotes from Sanātana Dharma to hold you gently when life feels unclear, and to remind you that this in-between is not empty, but sacred and filled with creative potential.

STEP 1) Enter the Silence…

“Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah.”

Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind.

— Patañjali’s Yoga Sūtras

STEP 2) Experience the Emptiness…

“Maunam tapasya ucyate.”

Silence is considered a great austerity.

— Bhagavad Gītā

STEP 3) Enter into Inner Enquiry…

“Na hi jñānena sadṛśaṁ pavitram iha vidyate.”

There is nothing more purifying than self-knowledge.

— Bhagavad Gītā

STEP 4) Listen and Feel deeply…

“Ātmā vā are draṣṭavyaḥ śrotavyaḥ mantavyaḥ nididhyāsitavyaḥ.”

The Self is to be seen, to be heard, to be reflected upon, and to be meditated upon.

— Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad

STEP 5) Plant and Nurture a New Seed…

“Yathā bījaṁ tathā aṅkuraḥ.”

As is the seed, so is the sprout.

— Yoga Vāsiṣṭha
