“Before death overpowers us, we have great things to accomplish by performing right actions.”

Real love is the complete absence of any negative feelings towards anyone.

If you have patience, then you’ll also have love. Patience leads to love.

Remember to set apart at least one hour every day to do some service for others. While the food we eat nurtures our bodies, it is what we give in charity that nurtures our souls. If time is not available daily, reserve at least a few hours every week for some worthwhile act of charity.

Most people are concerned only with what they can get from the world, but it is what we are able to give to others that determines the quality of our life.

Have the conviction that God is your only real relative and friend.

Love sustains everything.

Thankfulness is a humble, open and prayerful attitude that helps you receive more of God’s grace.

Too much reasoning has spoiled the contemporary mind. People have lost their hearts and faith.

Don’t be discouraged by your incapacity to dispel darkness from the world. Light your little candle and step forward.

Intellectual prowess has its limitations. Thus, do not limit the scope of your learning to the realm of the intellect.

Each and every living being in nature is part of God’s body.

What the world needs are servants, not leaders. Everyone’s wish is to become a leader, Let us become a real servant instead.

When people live in accordance with Nature, the song of life becomes sweet.

If we are not able to fix the Lord firmly in our hearts, even a lifetime of temple-going does not do us any good.

Love is our true essence. Love has no limitations of caste, religion, race, or nationality. We are all beads strung together on the same thread of love. To awaken this unity-and to spread to others the love that is our inherent nature-is the true goal of human life.

Just as the right hand comes to dress the wound on the left hand, we should see another person’s sorrows as our own and come to his or her aid.

A great piece of music is beautiful regardless of how it is performed.

I write music, it’s performed. After all, my music says it all. It doesn’t need historical and hysterical commentaries. In the long run, any words about music are less important than the music.

I think one of the biggest things that’s changed in terms of the rapport with the crowd is that now crowds come to hear our songs. We’re getting closer and closer to an artist performance.

If the communication is perfect, the words have life, and that is all there is to good writing, putting down on the paper words which dance and weep and make love and fight and kiss and perform miracles.

If you take my performance or my understanding of the role and my appreciation for story and then dress it in CGI, that I guess becomes an action film.

We’re now the results of our past actions, and in the future we’ll be the results of the actions we’re performing now.

Each day when you wake up, say: “What miracles would you have me perform today?” Then listen.

He who considers too much will perform little.
