The way to the Supreme Spirit lies through unceaseless service to humanity through the performance of one’s allotted work without a selfish thought.

Few mortals know that the kingdom of God includes the kingdom of mundane fulfillments. … The divine realm extends to the earthly; but the latter, illusory in nature, does not contain the essence of Reality.

The wise mourn neither for the dead nor for the living.

Patience, ceaseless efforts, and strong determination make everything possible.

Remember that true religion does not divide but unites; does not injure but heals; does not kill but saves.

God is in every living body.

The best way to understand the state of purity is to look at the children.

One should leave the place where the guru is maligned.

The sages and saints, clad with the bark of a tree, their eyes sunk in, their skin shrunk over their bony frame and their hair matted in locks, are the living idols of God as they move from door to door for alms.

I love those who love others.

For more than three decades I have waited for you to return to me. … You slipped away and disappeared into the tumultuous waves of the life beyond death. The magic wand of your karma touched you, and you were gone! Though you lost sight of me, never did I lose sight of you! I pursued you over the luminescent astral sea where the glorious angels sail. Through gloom, storm, upheaval, and light I followed you, like a mother bird guarding her young. As you lived out your human term of womb life, and emerged a babe, my eye was ever on you.

To serve a saint is sacred and brings great spiritual gain.

Wisdom shines from the temple of the pure heart. Wisdom is the crown for the structure of life.

As the impure mind has an evil influence and infects others with evil, so pure mind has an influence for good and so transforms others in their innermost character.

Even a little practice of this dharma (religious rite or righteous action) will save you from great fear (mahato bhayat)' — the colossal sufferings inherent in the repeated cycles of birth and death.

To renounce the world is not easy. Wherever man is, the world clings to him.

At present, the worldly man is helpless to achieve God-realization.

Among the living, man is the best creation. He chooses one of two paths: A life as a householder or a life of renunciation. Where can be found the justification for creating differences between a householder and a sannyasi?

The worldly man wants to realize God while continuing his daily life. But problems will arise for him, time is short. A simple, easy, unostentatious and highly effective Kriya Yoga is to be taught to them.

An absolute pure soul carries with it a great redemptive spiritual and moral power.

Be fearless.

Let the heart, the Inner Man in the heart guide you, rather than emotion and intellect.

Wake! All your earthly thirsts are about to be quenched forever. … My son, arise. Receive your initiation into the kingdom of God through Kriya Yoga.
