Help people to meditate, because there is nothing more creative than meditation. Each art and each creativity can be tremendously enhanced by meditation. If somebody is a painter and he starts meditating, his painting will have a sudden jump, it will become tremendously profound - because whatsoever you paint reflects your mind. If the mind goes deeper, your painting will go deeper. You paint your mind. What else can you paint? You paint yourself.

Consider whether fulfillment of the goal you have chosen will constitute success. What is success? If you possess health and wealth, but have trouble with everybody (including yourself), yours is not a successful life. Existence becomes futile if you cannot find happiness. When wealth is lost, you have lost a little; when health is lost, you have lost something of more consequence; but when peace of mind is lost, you have lost the highest treasure.

Only by magnetizing your spine, you can change your life force into a radiant, all-accomplishing divine force which in turn hastens your mental, physical and intellectual regeneration and rejuvenation. You do not have to go to the astrologer or the palmist. Through Kriya yoga practice, each chakra is purified, giving you all-round development. Each chakra has an invisible counterpart in every body part, and if you practice daily and sincerely, you will achieve quick spiritual evolution.

The things that most deserve our gratitude we just take for granted. Without air we cannot live for more than a minute or two. Everyday we are breathing in and breathing out, but do we ever feel grateful to the air? If we do not drink water, we cannot survive. Even our body is composed to a large extent of water. But do we give any value to water? Every morning when we open our eyes, we see the sun blessingfully offering us light and life-energy, which we badly need. But are we grateful to the sun?

I am dead already. Physical death will make no difference in my case. I am timeless being. I am free of desire or fear, because I do not remember the past or imagine the future. Where there are no names and shapes, how can there be desire and fear? With desirelessness comes timelessness. I am safe, because what is not, cannot touch what is. You feel unsafe, because you imagine danger. Of course, your body as such is complex and vulnerable and needs protection. But not you. Once you realize your own unassailable being, you will be at peace.

When you learn to get along with yourself, you will know how to get along with everybody.

Nobody can teach you love. Love you have to find yourself, within your being, by raising your consciousness to higher levels.

Most of us are convinced that we are our egos, which is who we think we are. The ego is part of our incarnation. It dies with the body, which is why we are so afraid of death. Death scares the hell out of who you think you are, especially if you think you are this body.

It can therefore be said that, from the viewpoint of the doctrine of the faith, there are no difficulties in explaining the origin of man in regard to the body, by means of the theory of evolution.

Stress is extremely harmful to the body.

Love is not a relationship, love is a state of being; it has nothing to do with anybody else. One is not "in love", one is love. And of course when one is love, one is in love – but that is an outcome, a by-product, that is not the source. The source is that one is love.

What is required is faith. Man has body, life and mind but that is not all that constitutes man. He has risen to the mind as a result of evolution. Now a higher consciousness will be evolved - this I call Supermind. It is the instrument of the Divine Consciousness, the Truth-Consciousness.

Anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should not harm his neighbor, & should entertain his guest generously.

Even though the gopis had obeyed, they still had much doubt. How did the river part if what they were saying was not the truth? Indeed, the answer is that it was all a matter of “doership.” If your mind says, “I have done it,” you must receive the result of your action. But remember, it is crucial to understand that “doership” comes from the inside, not by saying it with the mouth. If one has the state of knowledge that all work is being done by the body and the senses, one is free from the consequences.

Emotions arise in the place where your mind and body meet.

The sacraments infuse holiness into the terrain of man's humanity: they penetrate the soul and body, the femininity and masculinity of the personal subject, with the power of holiness.

I believe that the very effort to convert anybody is violence, it is interfering in his individuality, in his uniqueness, into his freedom.

One who does not see Kutastha (the inner Self between the eyebrows) with the help of Guru's advice in this physical body is a blind person.

God is in every living body.

In the final analysis, we count for something only because of the essential that we embody. If we do not embody that, life is wasted.

Meditation is a vital way to purify and quiet the mind, thus rejuvenating the body.

To free our body from fear what we need is the glorious experience of the soul.

Hatha Yoga teaches us to use the body as the bow, asana as the arrow, and the soul the target.
