“The winds of God’s grace are always blowing, it is for us to raise our sails.”

If however, you once see your Divine Mother, you will not afterwards find pleasure in all these. Throwing them all aside, you will run to her.

That is very good. But never get into your head that your faith alone is true and every other is false. Know for certain that God without form is real and that God with form is also real.

When one becomes spiritual, the ego vanishes gradually on its own. A tree laden with fruits always bends low. Humility is a sign of greatness.

When one has love for God, one doesn’t feel any physical attraction to wife, children, relatives and friends. One retains only compassion for them.

Do not be small minded. Do not pray for gourds and pumpkins from God, when you should be asking for pure love and pure knowledge to dawn within every heart.

In mutual love the lover not only wants the happiness of his beloved; but has an eye towards his own happiness also.

Do yourself what you wish others to do.

The truth is that you cannot attain God if you have even a trace of desire. Subtle is the way of dharma.

Too much study of the scriptures does more harm than good. The important thing is to know the essence of the scriptures.

Man needs a guru. But a man must have faith in the guru’s words. He succeeds in spiritual life by looking on his guru as God Himself.

The breeze of grace is always blowing; set your sail to catch that breeze.

The less your attachment is towards the senses, the more will be your love towards God .

That is to say, whose minds are not over-crowded with thoughts borrowed from others; and those who, after studying all the scriptures and sciences, have come to realise that they know nothing.

The ego is like the root of a banyan tree, you think you have removed it all then one fine morning you see a sprout flourishing again.

One cannot be spiritual as long as one has shame, hatred, or fear.

Similarly, though ahamkara (egotism) is slain in the perfect man, yet enough of its vitality is left to make him carry on the functions of physical life;

Now it is done by the central bankers and Treasury Secretaries themselves. They don’t apologize for it. They don’t hang their heads and contemplate blowing their brains out. Instead, they’re proud of it… announcing that they ‘saved civilization,’ or some such claptrap.

The real secret of magic is that the world is made of words, and that if you know the words that the world is made of you can make of it whatever you wish.

Ego is a structure that is erected by a neurotic individual who is a member of a neurotic culture against the facts of the matter. And culture, which we put on like an overcoat, is the collectivized consensus about what sort of neurotic behaviors are acceptable.

What civilization is, is 6 billion people trying to make themselves happy by standing on each other’s shoulders and kicking each other’s teeth in. It’s not a pleasant situation.

Culture is a perversion. It fetishizes objects, creates consumer mania, it preaches endless forms of false happiness, endless forms of false understanding in the form of squirrelly religions and silly cults. It invites people to diminish themselves and dehumanize themselves by behaving like machines.

And I’m just kind of blowing through this. And everybody’s, like, happy, and giving thumbs up.

The breeze of grace is always blowing on you. You have to open the sails and your boat will move forward.

The winds of grace are always blowing, but you have to raise the sail.
