“Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.”

Good thoughts keep off bad thoughts. They must themselves disappear before the state of realization.

That is the ego which rises and sinks periodically. But you exist always. That which lies beyond the ego is consciousness – the Self.

Apart from the body does the world exist? Has anyone seen the world without the body?

Reality is simply the loss of ego. Destroy the ego by seeking its identity. Because the ego is no entity it will automatically vanish and reality will shine forth by itself.

Turn the mind inward and cease thinking of yourself as the body; thereby you will come to know that the self is ever happy. Neither grief nor misery is experienced in this state.

Whatever be the means adopted, you must at last return to the Self, so why not abide as the Self here and now?

Love is verily the heart of all religions.

The seat of Realization is within and the seeker cannot find it as an object outside him. That seat is bliss and is the core of all beings. Hence it is called the Heart.

Remain still, with the conviction that the Self shines as everything yet nothing, within, without, and everywhere.

There is nothing new to gain. On the other hand a man must lose his ignorance. That is all.

Guru, God and Self are One.

The deeply learned ones know the mind as the directly expressed meaning of the supreme knowledge. The heart is the meaning aimed at. The Supreme is none other than the heart.

All that one gives to others one gives to one’s self. If this truth is understood, who will not give to others?

The world is not outside you.

Consciousness is indeed always with us. Everyone knows ‘I am!’ No one can deny his own being.

Is it the world that says I am real, or is it you?

Eclecticism. Every truth is so true that any truth must be false.

If I’m doing a fake movie, it’s gonna be a fake hit.

To refuse a hearing to an opinion, because they are sure that it is false, is to assume that their certainty is the same thing as absolute certainty. All silencing of discussion is an assumption of infallibility.

You fake something until you’re good at it.

The place that I worked I used to joke about it. There was a, every morning at 10:30 I’d come into work and I’d go into this cubicle that had a little upright piano and fake white cork bricks on the wall.

Another school declares that all time has already transpired and that our life is only the crepuscular and no doubt falsified and mutilated memory or reflection of an irrecoverable process.

Buddhists say that a fixed smile, however false, lights up the soul.

The so-called culture nowadays is only a fake one with a superficial front. It is an empty lie.
