“When you are sad or in pain or sick or you witness any cremation then you actually learn the many truths of life.”

Keep God in your heart like you keep money in the bank.

Cleanse the mirror of your heart, and you will see God.

All action is prayer. All trees are desire-fulfilli ng. All water is the Ganga. All land is Varanasi. Love everything.

All religions are the same. They all lead to God. God is everybody … The same blood flows through us all, the arms, the legs, the heart, all are the same. See no difference. See all the same.

I don’t want anything. I exist only to serve others.

Everything is impermanent, except the love of God.

It is very difficult to know exactly what good should come out of a particular situation. To attempt to manipulate circumstances so your idea of good can come about, is to let the ego play God-and that, as you know, can and does backfire.

Whatever may be guru – he may be a lunatic or a common person. Once you have accepted him, he is the lord of lords.

This world is all attachment. Yet you get worried because you are attached.

It should not be taken in a hot climate. If you are in a place that is cool and peaceful, and you are alone and your mind is turned toward God, then you may take the yogi medicine.

Lust, Greed, Anger, Attachment – These are all paths to hell.

Love all men as God, even if they hurt you or shame you. Be like Gandhi and Christ.

It’s better to see God in everything than to try to figure it out.

The whole universe is our home and all residing in it belong to our family… instead of trying to see God in a particular appearance, it is better to see him in everything.

Every line of the Hanuman Chalisa is a Mahamantra.

Often one goes for one thing and finds another

I know a cure for sadness: Let our hands touch something that makes your eyes smile.

I can feel a thing I cannot touch and touch a thing I cannot feel. The first is sad and sorry, the second is your heart.

Sadly, in the name of progress, we have polluted the air, water, soil and the food we eat.

The best advice I’ve ever heard about anything is this: Don’t exaggerate! When you work hard, when you sleep long, when you love much, when you are very sad, always remember this advice: Don’t exaggerate!

Sadness is one of the best universities in life! Though bad things take good things from us, they do give us useful things as well!

The thought of a happiness that comes from outside the person, brings him sadness. But the recognition in the value of one’s will and the freedom granted by its uplifting, brings great joy.

You cannot protect yourself from sadness without protecting yourself from happiness.

But if a mirror ever makes you sad you should know that it does not know you.
