“You are not here accidentally – you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you. The whole intends to do something through you.”

What is discipline? Discipline means creating an order within you. As you are, you are a chaos.

To avoid pain, they avoid pleasure. To avoid death, they avoid life.

Without freedom you can never be happy.

When I say be creative I don’t mean that you should all go and become great painters and great poets. I simply mean let your life be a painting, let your life be a poem.

Without freedom you can never be happy.

Loneliness is a black hole, a darkness, a frightening negative state almost like death.

It is beautiful to be alone, it is also beautiful to be in love, to be with people. And they are complementary, not contradictory.

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.
