“Attachment is the strongest block to realization.”

This world is all attachment. Yet you get worried because you are attached.

It should not be taken in a hot climate. If you are in a place that is cool and peaceful, and you are alone and your mind is turned toward God, then you may take the yogi medicine.

Lust, Greed, Anger, Attachment – These are all paths to hell.

When you are sad or in pain or sick or you witness any cremation then you actually learn the many truths of life.

Love all men as God, even if they hurt you or shame you. Be like Gandhi and Christ.

It’s better to see God in everything than to try to figure it out.

The whole universe is our home and all residing in it belong to our family… instead of trying to see God in a particular appearance, it is better to see him in everything.

Every line of the Hanuman Chalisa is a Mahamantra.

Often one goes for one thing and finds another

Total truth is necessary. You must live by what you say.

It is not necessary to meet your guru on the physical plane. The guru is not external.

The best form in which to worship God is every form.

Love is the strongest medicine.

Never put anyone out of your heart.

If you cannot love each other, you cannot achieve your goal.

Even if a person hurts you, give him love. The worst punishment is to throw someone out of your heart. You should love everyone as God, and love each other. If you cannot love each other, you cannot achieve your goal.

They told me to take a streetcar named Desire and then transfer to one called Cemeteries and ride six blocks and get off at – Elysian Fields!

In my clinical experience, the greatest block to a person’s development is his having to take on a way of life which is not rooted in his own powers.

And it was about then, about that time, that I began to find life unsatisfactory as an explanation of itself and was forced to adopt the method of the artist of not explaining but putting the blocks together in some other way that seems more significant to him. Which is a rather fancy way of saying I started writing.

Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it… Success is shy – it won’t come out while you’re watching.

Of course I lie to people. But I lie altruistically – for our mutual good. The lie is the basic building block of good manners. That may seem mildly shocking to a moralist – but then what isn’t?

You hit road blocks in life, but I’m living proof that you can overcome those road blocks and become what you want to become.

The idea is not to block every shot. The idea is to make your opponent believe that you might block every shot.

The world that you can go walk outside and walk around the block. That’s reality. The reality that’s being talked about is something else entirely.
