“Whenever a thought arises, instead of trying even a little either to follow it up or to fulfil it, it would be better to first enquire, “To whom did this thought arise?””

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.

All that one gives to others one gives to one’s self. If this truth is understood, who will not give to others?

Realization consists of getting rid of the false idea that one is not realized.

The world is not outside you.

Consciousness is indeed always with us. Everyone knows ‘I am!’ No one can deny his own being.

Is it the world that says I am real, or is it you?

Calmness is the criterion of spiritual progress. Plunge the purified mind into the Heart. Then the work is over.

The Self alone exists. When you try to trace the ego, which is the basis of the perception of the world and everything else, you find the ego does not exist at all and neither does all this creation that you see.

When there are thoughts, it is distraction: when there are no thoughts, it is meditation.

The macrocosm is in its entirety in the body. The body is in its entirety in the heart. Therefore heart is the summarised form of all the macrocosm.

Your own Self-realization is the greatest service you can render the world.

Silence is never-ending speech. In silence one is in intimate contact with the surroundings. Language is only a medium for communicating one’s thoughts to another. Silence is ever speaking.

Realization is to get rid of the delusion that you have not realized.

See who is the subject; and this inquiry leads you to pure Consciousness beyond the subject.

Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.

Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside.

The sun is a daily reminder that we too can rise again from the darkness, that we too can rise again

Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. It’s their way of falling.

The harder you fall, the harder you rise.

Holding others in their Light helps us all to rise.

Lust makes you fall. Love makes you ascend.

Time is swift, it races by; Opportunities are born and die. Still you wait and will not try – A bird with wings who dares not rise and fly.

I break up through the skin of awareness a thousand times a day, as dolphins burst through seas, and dive again, and rise, and dive.

We don’t rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training.
