“Seek a reality deeper than the changing forms.”

This whole universe, with all its vastness, grandeur and beauty, is nothing but sheer imagination. In spite of so many discoveries, researches and scientific knowledge, the creation remains a great unsolved riddle.

The satisfaction derived from the fleeting things of life is not lasting; and our wants remain unfulfilled. There is thus a general sense of dissatisfaction accompanied by all kinds of worries.

Only in the human form is it possible for life to attain its final goal, which is to realize the all-pervading and infinite Divinity.

I only know one yoga: ‘You Go.’

Light can penetrate any amount of darkness but no amount of darkness can penetrate light.

Worry is the product of feverish imagination working under the stimulus of desires… It is a necessary resultant of attachment to the past or to the anticipated future, and it always persists in some form or other until the mind is completely detached from everything.

When the bubble of ignorance bursts the self realizes its oneness with the indivisible Self. Words that proceed from the Source of Truth have real meaning. But when men speakthese words as their own, the words become meaningless.

I am also an artist. I have the whole world as my canvas. I paint souls.

The best way to cleanse the heart and prepare for the stilling of the mind is to lead a normal, worldly life. Living in the midst of your day-to-day duties, responsibilities, likes, dislikes, etc., will help you. All these become the very means for the purification of your heart.

Irrespective of doubts and convictions, and for the Infinite Love I bear for one and all, I continue to come as the Avatar, to be judged time and again by humanity in its ignorance, in order to help man distinguish the Real from the false.

What I want from my lovers is real, unadulterated love, and from my genuine workers I expect real work done.

The easiest and shortest way to God-realization is through the contact of a Sadguru, which means keeping the company or sahavas of such a Master, obeying him and serving him. This remedy is like a special express train which carries you straight to your destination.

To ask for a purely intellectual proof of the existence of God is like asking for the privilege of being able to see with your ears!

Truth is simple, but Illusion makes it infinitely intricate. The person is rare who possesses an insatiable longing for Truth; the rest allow Illusion to bind them ever more and more.

I love artists, because through art one can express oneself beautifully.

I am the Avatar of this Age!

Change the way you use your time, and you change your life.

If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that he said; if he didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what he said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like his teaching but whether or not he rose from the dead.

I believe the climate is changing because there’s never been a moment where the climate is not changing.

Even if there have been setbacks during these past years, China is changing. China’s society is opening.

Now I’ve come to such a mixed culture: America, Europe, South America, Africa. And the politics are changing everywhere all the time and becoming even more unpredictable.

Everything is art. Everything is politics.

The world is not changing if you don’t shoulder the burden of responsibility.

I think it was four years ago when my feelings were changing towards the industry.
