“Admire the diamond that can bear the hits of a hammer. Many deceptive preachers, when critically examined, turn out to be false.”

Wherever you are, that’s the entry point.

As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.

Listen to the secret sound, the real sound, which is inside you. The one no one talks of speaks the secret sound to himself, and he is the one who has made it all.

Path presupposes distance; If He be near, no path needest thou at all. Verily it maketh me smile To hear of a fish in water athirst!

A learned man’s knowledge will be of no avail to him if he doesn’t have control over his tongue.

I’ve burned my own house down, the torch is in my hand.Now I’ll burn down the house of anyone who wants to follow me.

When you really look for me you will see me instantly.

Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you find the Truth.

Though One Brahman is the Cause of the Many. Behold but One in all things it is the second that leads you astray.

I sell mirrors in the city of the blind.

The external forces conceal from the eyes the deep meaning of existence; True faith resides in the heart.

When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won’t greet twice.

Sing such a song with all of your heart that you’ll never have to sing again.

When the Guest is being searched for, it is the intensity of the longing for the Guest that does all the work. Look at me, and you will see a slave of that intensity.

It is the spirit of the quest which helps.

I laugh when I hear the fish in the water is thirsty.
