Your true nature is purity, peace and joy.
Silence is the only language of the realized. Practice moderation in speech.
God is in everyone. God is in you and you are God. Strengthen this fundamental truth. When you propagate this truth, that is the real service. It is the service that will take you to closer proximity, a boat. In this ocean of life, take the help of this boat and gain the proximity.
Seek your own Reality, That is what a wise man should do.
You cannot be fresh and feeling fine, wearing a washed vest under an unwashed shirt; or, an unwashed vest over a washed shirt. Both have to be clean, to provide a sense of tingling joy. So too outer and inner cleanliness is but the reflection of the inner achievement.
I insist on group singing of the names of the Lord.
Duty is God; Work is worship.
Willing is superfluous for Me. For grace is ever available to devotees who have steady love and faith. Since I move freely with them, talking and singing, even intellectuals are unable to grasp My Truth, My power, My glory or My real task as Avatar.

Of these five vital principles, Love is the foremost. It is Love that flows as the under-current for the other four values. How does it flow this way? When Love is associated with our thoughts, it manifests itself as Truth. When Love is associated with feelings, it produces Peace. When Love animates actions, it results in Right Action. When Love is combined with understanding it becomes Non-violence. Therefore whenever you feel angry, think of love, develop thoughts of love in your heart. You will have peace.
Let us grow together, enjoy together.
Do not develop jealousy, hatred or envy on any count.
Some people think, Swami calls himself a powerful magnet, but He is unable to attract us. The fault lies in them only.
No one wants to take from me what I give abundantly.
The first step in realization is to always think of God. Then after some years you will realize that you are one with God.
Without the confidence, nothing can be accomplished.
Of the twenty-four hours a day, use six for earning and spending, six for contemplation of God, six of sleep and six for service to others.
How can anyone be called human, if being born a human being and growing in a human society, he does not recognise human values? You must see that you don't harm any living being. He alone is a redeemed being who causes no pain to others and avoids pain to himself.
It is best to live with honor for just a day than with dishonor for many decades; better a short lived celestial swan than a century-lived crow.
Prema (love): practice that; develop that; spread that; and all the hatreds and jealousies of today will disappear. That is the duty of the Divine Life Society, here as well as elsewhere.
Adore God, abhor sin.
Develop Self-confidence, then love will follow.
You are God. You are not the ego. You are God!
