“This whole world is wild at heart and weird on top.”

Don’t make a film if it can’t be the film you want to make. It’s a joke, and a sick joke, and it’ll kill you.

It’s so freeing, it’s beautiful in a way, to have a great failure, there’s nowhere to go but up.

Intuition is knowingness, and this field of unbounded knowing, of knowingness, is within every human being. You start tapping into that and it becomes an ocean of solutions.

The only thing that disturbs me is that many psychopaths say they had a very happy childhood.

We’re all like detectives. We want to figure things out. Life, you know, we want to figure out life, and we want to figure out what’s going on, so it’s beautiful. It’s beautiful that people are thinking.

I love seeing people come out of darkness.

The more unknowable the mystery, the more beautiful it is.

A film is its own thing and in an ideal world I think a film should be discovered knowing nothing and nothing should be added to it and nothing should be subtracted from it.

It’s better not to know so much about what things mean or how they might be interpreted or you’ll be too afraid to let things keep happening.

You don’t need a special place to meditate. You can transcend anywhere in the world. The unified field is here, and there, and everywhere.

Being in darkness and confusion is interesting to me. But behind it you can rise out of that and see things the way the really are.

Meditation is not a selfish thing. Even though you’re diving in and experiencing the Self, you’re not closing yourself off from the world. You’re strengthening yourself, so that you can be more effective when you go back into the world.

There is an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness inside each one of us.

Sex is a doorway to something so powerful and mystical, but movies usually depict it in a completely flat way.

Life is very, very complicated, and so films should be allowed to be, too.

I like making films because I like to go into another world. I like to get lost into another world.

I don’t want to be alone, I want to be left alone.

Great poetry needs no interpreter other than a responsive heart.

But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.

Don’t get too much emotionally attached to anyone. 

Everyone has been made for some particular work and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.

An open heart is an open mind.

As you live Deeper in the Heart, the Mirror gets clearer and cleaner.
