“People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness.”

Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there.

Inner peace is the key: if you have inner peace, the external problems do not affect your deep sense of peace and tranquility.

Pain is inevitable,suffering is optional.

Seek to be an oasis of caring and concern as you live your life.

Compassion is the radicalism of our time.

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives.

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.

A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you.

People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their own happiness or satisfaction.

Happiness doesn’t always come from a pursuit. Sometimes it comes when we least expect it.

When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

All suffering is caused by ignorance.

There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called Yesterday and the other is called Tomorrow.

True change is within; leave the outside as it is.

The way to change others’ minds is with affection, and not anger.

Whether one is rich or poor, educated or illiterate, religious or nonbelieving, man or woman, black, white, or brown, we are all the same.

What I’m trying to do is fulfill what my father said, which is, ‘We have to find a way to live together as brothers and sisters, or together we’re going to perish as fools.’

I’ve had such a great time, I’d like to come back as me – and do it all over again.

Maybe to become famous is to reassure yourself that whatever you’re lacking inside, you’ve fulfilled that.

I was like every other boy in India, with a dream of playing for my country. Yet I could never have imagined a journey so long and so fulfilling. No dream is ever chased alone.

I believe if you can find something to give back to, your soul will feel fulfilled in a very powerful way.

Difficulty attracts the characterful man, for it is by grasping it that he fulfils himself.

I am deeply fulfilled by all that I do.

You cannot fulfil God’s purposes for your life while focusing on your own plans.
