“I live my life based on 2 principles. One, I live as if today was my last day on earth. Two, I live today as if I am going to live forever.”

Freedom is a higher value than love.

In love the other is important; in lust you are important.

Life repeats itself mindlessly – unless you become mindful, it will go on repeating like a wheel.

There exists no God. What exists is godliness, and that godliness surrounds you. We are all in the same ocean.

My whole teaching consists of two words, meditation and love.

You feel good, you feel bad, and these feelings are bubbling from your own unconsciousness, from your own past. Nobody is responsible except you.

To be creative means to be in love with life. You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty.

They say: Think twice before you jump. I say: Jump first and then think as much as you want!

Life is not a problem. To look at it as a problem is to take a wrong step. It is a mystery to be lived, loved, experienced.

My meditation is simple. It does not require any complex practices. It is simple. It is singing. It is dancing. It is sitting silently.

Meditate so that you can feel immense silence, and love so that your life can become a song, a dance, a celebration.

Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. If you relax it comes, if you relax it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.

Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. If you relax it comes, if you relax it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.

Find ecstasy within yourself. It is not out there. It is in your innermost flowering. The one you are looking for is you.

Nothing hurts more than loneliness.

If you are a parent, open doors to unknown directions to the child so he can explore. Don’t make him afraid of the unknown,give him support.

In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.

On our knees we are the most powerful force on earth.

We should always endeavor to wonder at the permanent thing, not at the mere exception. We should be startled by the sun, and not by the eclipse. We should wonder less at the earthquake, and wonder more at the earth.

Nothing earth-shattering has happened in men’s fashion. How much can you do with men’s clothes?

I would rather die for Christ than rule the whole earth.

O God of earth and altar, Bow down and hear our cry, Our earthly rulers falter, Our people drift and die; The walls of gold entomb us, The swords of scorn divide, Take not thy thunder from us, But take away our pride.

The love that made Him to suffer passeth as far all His pains as Heaven is above Earth.

I know that god put me on this earth for a reason. The reason may not be fully known to me yet but I know I will fulfill that reason because I have him.
