“I am also an artist. I have the whole world as my canvas. I paint souls.”

No amount of prayer or meditation can do what helping others can do.

There is nothing that love cannot achieve, and there is nothing that love cannot sacrifice.

Pure love is matchless in majesty; it has no parallel in power and there is no darkness it cannot dispel.

If we suffer in the sufferings of others and feel happy in the happiness of others, we are loving God.

What will the present chaos lead to? How will it all end? It can only end in one way. Mankind will be sick of it all.

God alone is real, nothing matters but love for God.

When the mind soars in pursuit of the things conceived in space…it pursues emptiness; but when man dives deep within himself, he experiences the fullness of existence.

To attain union is so impossibly difficult because it is impossible to become what you already are! Union is nothing other than knowledge of oneself as the Only One.

Live more and more in the Present, which is ever beautiful and stretches away beyond the limits of the past and the future.

God alone is real, and all else is illusion.

Those who speculate from the shore about the ocean shall know only its surface, but those who would know the depths of the ocean must be willing to plunge into it.

Through endless time God’s greatest gift is continuously given in silence. But when mankind becomes completely deaf to the thunder of His Silence God incarnates as Man.

Joke I read somewhere: They say that God is the innermost dweller of all. Well I hope He likes enchiladas – cause that’s what He’s getting! Love delights and glorifies in giving, not receiving.

If you are convinced of God’s existence then it rests with you to seek Him, to see Him and to realize Him. Do not search for God outside of you. God can only be found within you, for His only abode is the heart.

The finding of God is the coming to one’s own self.

Difficulties give us the opportunity to prove our greatness by overcoming them.

A blank canvas is still better than a ruined painting.

Perception is the paintbrush. The reality, the canvas. You are the artist. Create purposefully.

Painting will bring a lot of good thoughts to your heart.

I put on the canvas whatever comes into my mind.

I am the first to be surprised and often terrified by the images that I see appear on my canvas.

Every canvas offers a new perspective.

While I am working I am not conscious of what I am putting on the canvas.

A painter should begin every canvas with a wash of black, because all things in nature are dark except where exposed by the light.
