“Do not pursue what should be, but understand what is.”

Only when the mind is still, tranquil, not expecting or grasping or resisting a single thing, is it possible to see what is true. It is the truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

If you find out what it is you love to do and give your whole life to it, then there is no contradiction, and in that state your being is your doing.

Intuition is the only true guide in life.

Its beautiful to be alone. To be alone does not mean to be lonely. it means the mind is not influenced and contaminated by society.

The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.

There is an art of seeing things as they are: without naming, without being caught in a network of words, without thinking interfering with perception.

It is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

What you are the world is. And without your transformation, there can be no transformation of the world.

It is very easy to conform to what your society or your parents and teachers tell you. That is a safe and easy way of existing; but that is not living; To live is to find out for yourself what is true.

Put away the book, the description, the tradition, the authority, and take the journey of self-discovery.

The crisis is not out there in the world, it is within our own consciousness.

I don’t mind what happens. That is the essence of inner freedom. It is a timeless spiritual truth: release attachment to outcomes, deep inside yourself, you’ll feel good no matter what.

Without knowing yourself, there is no peace.

Knowledge, idea, belief stands in the way of wisdom.

The mind has to be empty to see clearly.

You want to be loved because you do not love; but the moment you love, it is finished, you are no longer inquiring whether or not somebody loves you.

All arts lie in man, though not all are apparent. Awakening brings them out. To be taught is nothing; everything is in man waiting to be awakened.

Life is a series of awakenings.

The world, like a dream full of attachments and aversions seems real until the awakening.

A spiritual intention is a resounding YES to awakening to your fullest potential. It may include several of your life structures: mental, emotional, financial, relational – because there is no aspect of your life that is not spiritual.

The U.S. needs a strong techno brand like Awakenings, just pretty much pure techno.

Single-minded devotion engenders deep thought, which expresses itself in action. The Lord’s Light descends on the devotee, His power awakens in him and, as a result, profound inner inquiry blossoms forth.

However, anyone to whom this happens should not leave his room upon awakening, should speak to no-one, but remain alone and sober until everything comes back to him, and he recalls the dream.

Preaching means to awaken the real inclination to serve God.
