“Devotion is a way of being, it’s not something you do. It’s dedication to finding awareness and Love. Chanting is like asanas for the mind and the heart.”

All we can know is our own subjective version of reality. That’s the way we go through our lives. Everybody.

You cannot think your way out of a box made of thought.

We all inhabit our lives, in different ways to some degree. We see ourselves a certain way, and based on how we see ourselves, that’s how we see the world.

I chant to save my miserable ass. That’s what I do.

Hanuman not only gives liberation, he also fulfills our beneficial desires.

Devotion is a disease. And you catch it from those people who have it.

We are just here, right? We are just people doing our thing. And the most important aspect of anything we do is our motivation, why we do it.

Can you imagine what it would be like to all of a sudden see another color that nobody else sees?

When we start to talk about gurus, we’re talking about beings who actually know what this is all about. They know who we were, where we came from, and where we’re going. They are not imprisoned in a selfish or self-centered view of the universe.

This is what I do to keep my head screwed on semi-straight and keep my heart open. Whenever I sing, that’s why I sing. Whether it’s at the Grammys, whether it’s in the bathroom, whether it’s in front of 10,000 people or three people, by my guru’s grace, my head stays in that place.

Love is what we are; we don’t get it from somebody, we can’t give it to anybody, we can’t fall in it or fall out of it. Love is our true Being.

The heart in us is deeper than any emotion or psychological issue.

On the Path, it’s impossible to know how you are doing because it’s the judger who is disappearing.

It takes two to tango! I need everybody to sing with me.

I knew that if I did not start chanting with people, that I would never be able to clean out the dark corners of my own heart. I knew it with every cell in my body and mind.

When you fall in love, nobody has to tell you. You know what you feel.

When one is consumed by the sorrows of life, three things give him relief: offspring, a wife, and the company of the Lord’s devotees.

I’ll never get tired of asking god to guide me.

Most of the energy of political work is devoted to correcting the effects of mismanagement of government.

Devotion, like fire, goeth upward.

My entire theology can be condensed into four words, ‘JESUS DIED FOR ME’.

Eka-Nishtha or devotion to one ideal is absolutely necessary for the beginner in the practice of religious devotion.

I have devoted myself to the Rockets. –Travis Scott

Blue dreams in ocean wading devotion I miss the waves of our healthy obsession.
