“Except for our bodies there are no other temples in the world.”

Life is a mystery, but man wants to reduce it to a problem!

There are very few joys in life greater than spontaneity. Spontaneity means to be in the moment; it means acting out of your awareness, not acting according to your old conditionings.

Meaning is man-created. And because you constantly look for meaning, you start to feel meaninglessness.

You exist in time, but you belong to eternity.

To be an individual is the hardest thing in the world, because nobody likes you to be an individual. Everybody wants to kill your individuality and to make a sheep out of you. Nobody wants you to be on your own.

Anybody who gives you a belief system is your enemy, because the belief system becomes the barrier for your eyes, you cannot see the truth.

Aloneness is the presence of oneself. Aloneness is very positive… You are so full of presence that you can fill the whole universe with your presence and there is no need for anybody.

Attachment brings misery, unattachment brings blissfulness. So use things, but don’t be used by them. Live life but don’t be lived by it. Possess things, but don’t be possessed by them. Have things – that’s not a problem. I am not for renunciation. Enjoy everything that life gives, but always remain free.

The ego does not, cannot live in the present, because the present is real and the ego is false – they never meet.

People say love is blind because they do not know what love is. I say unto you, only love has eyes; other than love, everything is blind.

The moment you accept yourself, you become beautiful.

Come out of the masses. Stand alone like a lion and live your life according to your own light.

Freedom means the capability to say yes when yes is needed, to say no when no is needed, and sometimes to keep quiet when nothing is needed – to be silent, not to say anything. When all these dimensions are available, there is freedom.

Respect your uniqueness, and drop comparison. Relax into your being.

Live without expectations and there will be no frustration.

Once your awareness becomes a flame, it burns up the whole slavery that the mind has created.

Never be ashamed of your problems, your body, yourself. You are worth life.

I’m not a model – I have curves. I find things that accentuate my body, a woman’s body, and I always wear things that I feel comfortable in.

The soul should take care of the body, just as the pilgrim on his way to Makkah takes care of his camel; but if the pilgrim spends his whole time in feeding and adorning his camel, the caravan will leave him behind, and he will perish in the desert.

Know, O beloved, that man was not created in jest or at random, but marvelously made and for some great end. Although he is not form everlasting, yet he lives for ever; and though his body is mean and earthly, yet his spirit is lofty and divine.

I don’t think I’m fixed. People think that you’re like a car in a body shop. You go in, they fix you, and you’re out. It takes constant fixing.

From the body of one guilty deed a thousand ghostly fears and haunting thoughts proceed.

I often think that a slightly exposed shoulder emerging from a long satin nightgown packs more sex than two naked bodies in bed.

The naked woman’s body is a portion of eternity too great for the eye of man.
