Children, we should visit homes of the poor, orphanages and hospitals from time to time. We should take our family members along and offer assistance and look after the welfare of inmates. A word spoken with love and concern will give them more comfort than any amount of money. That will lead to the expansion of our hearts as well.

If you see deficiencies in others, your duty is to forgive instead of pointing at it.

Pray May all reach the shore of peace, spreading the sweet holy fragrance of Love and vibrations of unity and harmony.

Take a vow for a life of service to others.

Peace is not just the absence of war and conflict; it goes well beyond that. Peace must be fostered within the individual, within the family and within society. Simply transferring the world's nuclear weapons to a museum will not in itself bring about world peace. The nuclear weapons of the mind must first be eliminated.

As far as possible, everyone in the family should eat together.

When someone is full of Love and Compassion, he cannot draw a line between two countries, two faiths or two religions.

Our attitude should be: Whatever happens I will remain strong, courageous and happy.

Everything is God, there is nothing else but God.

If we have been able to give happiness to a soul—even for a minute—it makes our life blessed.

When people live in accordance with Nature, the song of life becomes sweet.

Once you learn the art of relaxation, everything happens spontaneously and effortlessly.

Children, we cannot control our mind without controlling our desire for taste. The health aspect, not the taste, should be the prime criteria in choosing the food. We cannot relish the blossoming of the heart without foregoing the taste of the tongue.

For a true disciple, the repetition of the mantra is like food.

The only way we can feel free is by feeling the pure love within.

It is my children who have made all this possible. My children are my wealth; they are my strength.

Talking high philosophy often confuses people, but a look from an egoless person can lift the clouds of pain and despair.

Be content and happy with whatever comes to you.

Peace is not a product of an intellectual exercise. It is an inner blossoming that occurs with meditation.

Only when human beings are able to perceive and acknowledge the Self in each other can there be real peace.

Children, if we can do archana of the 1000 Names of the Divine Mother daily with devotion, we will grow spiritually. There will never be lack of life's essentials, food and clothing, in a family that chants the 1000 Names with devotion.

If you are unable to meditate, chant your mantra or sing bhajans.

Pure love makes you feel as light as a flower. You won't feel any heaviness or burden. Ego creates the burden.
