With sincerity and earnestness one can realize God through all religions. The Vaishnavas will realize God, and so will the Saktas, the Vedantists, and the Brahmos. The Mussalmans and Christians will realize Him too. All will certainly realize God if they are earnest and sincere.

I encourage Christians regularly to visit Christ present in the Blessed Sacrament, for we are all called to abide in the presence of God.

God made us for joy. God is joy, & the joy of living reflects the original joy that God felt in creating us.

When the heart is open, it's easier for the mind to be turned toward God.

All things of creation are children of the Father and thus brothers of man. ... God wants us to help animals, if they need help. Every creature in distress has the same right to be protected.

I do make conversion, if conversion means really turning people to God - to have a clean heart and to love God. That's the real conversion.

If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.

Ever-new Joy is God. He is inexhaustible; as you continue your meditations during the years, He will beguile you with an infinite ingenuity. Devotees like yourself who have found the way to God never dream of exchanging Him for any other happiness; He is seductive beyond thought of competition.

Forget your dream-born mortal weakness. Wake up and know that you and God are one.

The sun can give heat and light to the whole world, but he cannot do so when the clouds shut out his rays. Similarly as long as egotism veils the heart, God cannot shine upon it.

To me there is no difference between one person and another; I behold all as soul-reflections of the one God. I can't think of anyone as a stranger, for I know that we are all part of the One Spirit.

Thus to share in the sufferings of Christ is, at the same time, to suffer for the kingdom of God. In the eyes of the just God, before his judgment. Those who share in the sufferings of Christ become worthy of this kingdom.

To love God in the most practical way is to love our fellow beings. If we feel for others in the same way as we feel for our own dear ones, we love God.

We are all strong because of God’s strength. The Lord is our constant companion. Take refuge in Him and be free from grief and sorrow.

Let everything happen as Divine will. All are bound with the thread of karma. There is only one thing I know: God is doing everything and it is for the good of all.

Creativity has nothing to do with creating something, creativity is simply the presence of God.

My God is love and sweetly suffers all.

Make a firm decision: 'Whatever happens, I will be happy. I will be strong. God is always with me.'

Fearlessness means faith in God: faith in his protection, His justice...

Each individual in fact has moral responsibility for the acts which he personally performs; no one can be exempted from this responsibility, and on the basis of it everyone will be judged by God himself.

The perfect man sees nothing but God.

The genuine Guru is God's representative and he speaks about God and nothing else.

The kingdom of God is just behind the darkness of closed eyes, and the first gate that opens to it is your peace.
