“I don’t know how you were diverted, You were perverted too. I don’t know how you were inverted No one alerted you.”

When you’ve seen beyond yourself, then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there.

We’re trying to impress ourselves in a way. That’s why we keep trying to do things better. We never get satisfied.

I believe what it says in the scriptures and in the Bhagavad Gita: ‘Never was there a time when you did not exist, and there never will be a time when you cease to exist.’

A little understanding of “As you sow, so shall you reap” is important, because then you can’t blame the condition you’re in on anyone else.

The whole thing of life and all the answers to everything are in one divine law, Karma action and reaction.

The purpose of life is to find out ‘Who am I?’, ‘Why am I here?’ and ‘Where am I going?’

Having played with other musicians, I don’t even think The Beatles were that good.

It is an outrage that people can take other people’s lives when they obviously haven’t got their own lives in order.

It is better to be an outspoken atheist than a hypocrite.

God is actually inside. He lives in our hearts.

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street; if you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat; if you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat; if you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.

Everyone should have themselves regularly overwhelmed by Nature.

Give me love, give me peace on earth, give me light, give me life.

We are not these bodies, just souls having a bodily experience.

Everybody is worried about dying, but the cause of death is birth, so if you don’t want to die, you don’t get born!

Sometimes I feel like I’m actually on the wrong planet. It’s great when I’m in my garden, but the minute I go out the gate I think, ‘What the hell am I doing here?

Starve your distractions, feed your focus.

Work is hard. Distractions are plentiful. And time is short.

If you spent one-tenth of the time you devoted to distractions like chasing women or making money to spiritual practice, you would be enlightened in a few years.

Complexity means distracted effort. Simplicity means focused effort.

When there are thoughts, it is distraction: when there are no thoughts, it is meditation.

If I’d known Ashton wanted my attention at any point I would have pushed Nicole aside and given her my undivided attention. But most of the time she was wrapped in Sawyer’s arms and I needed the distraction Nicole provided.

Meditation is sticking to one thought. That single thought keeps away other thoughts; distraction of mind is a sign of its weakness; by constant meditation it gains strength.

If I’m being honest, I was messing up on every other level in my life growing up – whether it was in school or in my jobs. I was always distracted by my love for music.
