On the Path, it’s impossible to know how you are doing because it’s the judger who is disappearing.
KRISHNA DASOn the Path, it’s impossible to know how you are doing because it’s the judger who is disappearing.
KRISHNA DASThe ultimate act of power is surrender.
KRISHNA DASThe only real protection will come from doing a spiritual practice over a prolonged period of time. Because it retrains us to see the world and ourselves in a different way.
KRISHNA DASBhakti yoga isn’t something you join, it’s love. It means falling in love.
KRISHNA DASYou can never really know what a guru is as long as you are imprisoned by your own thoughts and circular ego.
KRISHNA DASUltimately when I am with you all, what I see is my Guru. And what is he? He is love.
KRISHNA DASWe instantly believe everything we think. Isn’t that insane? It’s good for us to explore the depravity of our minds, so we know we are just as crazy as everyone else!
KRISHNA DASWhen you fall in love, nobody has to tell you. You know what you feel.
KRISHNA DASReal compassion is not emotional. Real compassion is based on the experience that all beings, which might appear separate, are actually a part of my own body, and I am a part of the body of the universe. We are not separate. So if one being hurts, I also hurt.
KRISHNA DASChanting is a way of getting in touch with yourself. It’s an opening of the heart and letting go of the mind and thoughts. It deepens the channel of grace, and it’s a way of being present in the moment.
KRISHNA DASWhen our desires are fulfilled, and we still feel unhappy – this is the moment we begin the process of letting go.
KRISHNA DASDevotion is a disease. And you catch it from those people who have it.
KRISHNA DASDon’t give up on your dreams. You can become the person you know you really are.
KRISHNA DASUnlimited inner strength can only be awakened when it is in the service of Love. When we align ourselves with that love and act in service of that love, anything is possible.
KRISHNA DASThis 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.
KRISHNA DASJust the slightest turn toward the inside is a very big thing.
