“Being impeccable with your word is the correct use of your energy; it means to use your energy in the direction of truth and love for yourself.”

What has happened to the adult human?

I don’t like calling myself a “feminist” only because I don’t think I’ve done anything active enough to call myself one. It’d be like calling myself a civil rights activist just because I’m not racist.

We learn to be right and to make everyone else wrong. The need to be right is the result of trying to protects the image we want to project to the outside. We have to impose our way of thinking, not just onto other humans, but even upon ourselves.

You are alive, so take your life and enjoy it. You were born with the right to be happy, to love, and to share your love. Just to be-to take a risk and enjoy your life-is all that matters.

Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.

Life is like dancing…changing all the time.

Your opinion is nothing but your point of view.

With knowledge, our creation can go in any direction – from the worst kind of drama, to the most beautiful dream. Then the best way to express our creativity is with love and awareness of what we really are.

We never stop to consider that our beliefs are only a relative truth that’s always going to be distorted by all the knowledge we have stored in our memory.

We were born in this society, we grew up in this society. And we learn to be like everyone else, playing nonsense all the time.

Everything you think about yourself, everything you believe about yourself, is because you learned it.

It is always better to ask then to make an assumption.

If you are not afriad, thereis no way you will get mad at me. If you are not afraid, there is no way you will hate me. If you are not afraid, there is no way you will be jealous or sad.

What you will see is love coming out of the trees, love coming out of the sky, love coming out of the light. You will perceive love from everything around you. This is the state of bliss.

The action is what makes the dreams come true. Always do your best. The dream that you have becomes real when you take the action. If you dont take the action whatever is in your head … will dissolve and you will forget about it

Nobody abuses us more than we abuse ourselves.

I think my being such a nomad let me into acting. I was always having to create a new image whenever we moved.

Human beings are unable to be honest with themselves about themselves. They cannot talk about themselves without embellishing.

I have always been a softie, and I fight it with every fiber of my being. Sadly, my being’s fibers need to hit the gym.

We are all human beings, immigrant or non-immigrant. We all feel fear.

As a human being living one’s life, one is more open to relief when there is rain or the expectation of rain. That readiness for hope gets manifested in my stories and that of many other Indian writers.

Love, being in love, isn’t a constant thing. It doesn’t always flow at the same strength. It’s not always like a river in flood. It’s more like the sea. It has tides, it ebbs and flows.

The mind of an enlightened human being is flexible and adaptable.

It’s just people being people, the world being the world
