“The main factor in meditation is to keep the mind active in its own pursuit without taking in external impressions or thinking of other matters.”

Sense-perceptions can only be indirect knowledge, and not direct knowledge. Only one’s own awareness is direct knowledge.

You may go on reading any number of books on Meditation. They can only tell you ‘Realize the Self’. The Self cannot be found in books. You have to find it for yourself in yourself.

The “I” thought is said to be the sum total of all thoughts. The source of the “I” thought has to be inquired into.

It is within your competence to think and thus to get bound or to cease thinking and thus be free.

Good thoughts keep off bad thoughts. They must themselves disappear before the state of realization.

That is the ego which rises and sinks periodically. But you exist always. That which lies beyond the ego is consciousness – the Self.

Apart from the body does the world exist? Has anyone seen the world without the body?

Reality is simply the loss of ego. Destroy the ego by seeking its identity. Because the ego is no entity it will automatically vanish and reality will shine forth by itself.

Turn the mind inward and cease thinking of yourself as the body; thereby you will come to know that the self is ever happy. Neither grief nor misery is experienced in this state.

Whatever be the means adopted, you must at last return to the Self, so why not abide as the Self here and now?

Love is verily the heart of all religions.

The seat of Realization is within and the seeker cannot find it as an object outside him. That seat is bliss and is the core of all beings. Hence it is called the Heart.

Remain still, with the conviction that the Self shines as everything yet nothing, within, without, and everywhere.

There is nothing new to gain. On the other hand a man must lose his ignorance. That is all.

Guru, God and Self are One.

The deeply learned ones know the mind as the directly expressed meaning of the supreme knowledge. The heart is the meaning aimed at. The Supreme is none other than the heart.

The essence of man is not what he is, but in what he is able to be.

Failure knocks the door of the unprepared minds very often.

The power of every dictator has two main sources: His psychopathic mind and the support of the very easily deceivable ignorant masses!

Obscure shadows on the mind are much scarier than the dark shadows of the night.

If a quote changes your life in a good way, keep it in your mind and in your heart to give it to someone else too!

All the beautiful corners of the world are the greatest mind and body healers!

When the life is wavy, keep your mind smooth!

I did not ask for success; I asked for wonder.
