“The indicator of true knowledge is the ability to differentiate what uplifts us from what pulls us down.”

Spirituality, as expounded by the great saints and sages of the past, is a very broad path. It accommodates all types of belief systems. You need to satisfy everyone.

No one becomes pure and selfless overnight; it involves time and concentrated effort, coupled with tremendous patience and love.

A seed has to get buried in the soil for its real form as a plant to emerge. Only through modesty and humility can we grow. Pride and conceit will only destroy us. Live with the firm attitude, ‘I am everyone’s servant.’ Then the whole universe will bow down to us.

Our attitude should be: Whatever happens I will remain strong, courageous and happy.

Unfortunately, the only meaning that society attributes to life today is an opportunity to make money.

There are millions and millions of people who are thrown in the midst of poverty and starvation. Animals don’t die of starvation, only human beings.

When we come to know who we truly are, we will see ourselves in all people.

Look upon others as being part of yourself.

God is standing at the door of every heart. Call Him. He is waiting to come in.

Surrender and living in the present are one and the same.

Any pleasure gained by means other than mental control weakens the body.

Children, meditation is not just sitting with our eyes closed. We should take every action as worship. We should be able to experience His presence everywhere.

Love and spiritual values received from parents are the strongest assets for a child to face the various trials of adulthood.

Be like the honeybee who gathers only nectar wherever it goes. Seek the goodness that is found in everyone.

Feel your prayers, feel your mantra and you will feel God.

Today, society is sacrificing love, values and dharma in its pursuit of materialistic gains.
