“U.P. is a big state. I don’t have enough leadership experience for such a big state. I requested the party for two experienced associates to help me and work with me.”

Most of the people who oppose idol worshipping belong to TMC.

The Election Commission stopped me from campaigning. I accepted it and reached people through my prayer – in silence. People gave their approval. Praying in silence is important, and this spiritual prayer has paid off.

A victory for the BJP means a victory for prosperity and development.

I don’t have a personal agenda. My priority is expeditious implementation of my party’s manifesto, the Lok Kalyan Sankalp Patra.

We must raise resources by curbing wasteful expenditure. That’s why I resolved that the hooter culture, where VIPs are provided red-beacon cars at taxpayers’ expense, must end.

I am not putting a check on anyone. I just have to say that India’s Constitution has given certain rights and freedom to people, but there are some limits, too.

My guide is the Modi government at the Centre. It’s my inspiration. I will follow that.

After Modi became the PM, development happened across the country.

The problem is that there are not enough opportunities for the youngsters in U.P. which forces them to migrate. Our aim is to provide employment to 90% youngsters.

The BJP has a zero-tolerance policy towards terrorism and is determined to equip the Indian armed forces with modern and hi-tech equipment and take steps to restrict illegal immigration.

The real Hindu vision is that nobody will be discriminated against or favoured. Everyone is equal.

Sadhvi Pragya is an answer to those who have maligned the image of Hindus by using the phrase ‘Hindu terrorism.’

Life is not a search for experience, but for ourselves. Having discovered our own fundamental level we realize that it conforms to our own destiny and we find peace.

The longer I live and the more experience I have of the world, the more I am convinced that, after all, the one thing that is most worth living for-and dying for, if need be-is the opportunity of making someone else more happy.

But grace can be the experience of a second wind, when even though what you want is clarity and resolution, what you get is stamina and poignancy and the strength to hang on.

The new spirituality is that it will produce an experience in human encounters in which we become a living demonstration of the basic spiritual teaching ‘We are all one.’

While it is wise to learn from experience, it is wiser to learn from the experiences of others.

Definitely working on ‘Deal or No Deal’ was a learning experience, and it helped me to understand what I would rather be doing.

Everything is falling together perfectly, even though it looks as if some things are falling apart. Trust in the process you are now experiencing.
