“Meditation is the journey from sound to silence, from movement to stillness, from a limited identity to unlimited space.”

Nothing in the world can bother you as much as your own mind.

Either a princess or a pauper can feel generous. Generosity is the quality of the spirit. When you feel generous your life becomes, abundant full of compassion and love.

When you move with this thought that ‘I want’, then the mind wanders. When you move with this thought that ‘I have received’, then you are content.

Don’t focus on what others want. See what it is that you want. When you stop looking inside and look at others, that is when you miss the boat.

Faith is giving the divine a chance to act.

Your love is unique. Let love remain love, don’t give it any name. The love that is defined by a relationship is limited. The love that is beyond relationships, that is true love.

Your richness is on your ability to share and not in how much you have.

Whatever you put attention on will start manifesting in your life. Intention, attention, manifestation; that is how the universe works.

When your intentions are very pure and clear, nature brings support to you.

Let the mind calm down and the heart start to open. Then everything will be very obvious.

We need to do a cleansing process within ourselves. In sleep we get rid of fatigue, but the deeper stresses remain in our body. Sudarshan Kriya cleanses the system from the inside. The breath has a great secret to offer.

Love is seeing God in the person next to us, and meditation is seeing God within us.

Don’t Fall in love, Rise in Love!

The entire universe is one whole, when you drop holding on to your limited boundaries, then what you gain is the entire universe.

A plant has to be watered but when it grows into a tree, it is no longer necessary. Similarly, if the inner consciousness becomes stronger, all these vikaar (distortions) get erased. Vishranti vikar mita (Deep rest removes negativity). There is no rest deeper than meditation.

When mind controls man, it’s … Bhoga (bondage). But when man controls mind, it’s…Yoga

I cannot recite Hanuman chalisa at home and wear a skull cap outside just to attract votes. It is my responsibility that, without losing my identity, I must ensure a peaceful environment for people of all faiths so that they can follow their beliefs.

Through my travels, I find inspiration in street style and how young women create their individual looks and identity.

You got to be who you are when you are.

I’m not the next anyone, I’m the first Maria Sharapova.

Maybe if I was British, a semi-final would be incredible. I’d be on the front page of the paper.

I am the herald of the Great King.

I’m an athlete. I go out there and fight my heart out.

I am a Hindu, and I have pride in that.
