Many preach that do this way, do that way, have faith, speak the truth, have patience. These are all results (effects). How can results be changed?

The worldly life means a market place of sensual pleasures. Worldly life means false (temporary) happiness all the time. And moksha (liberation) means permanent happiness all the time.

Believing happiness to be in the eternal thing is called the enlightened vision (samkit).

There is no happiness in what worldly people believe happiness in, there is happiness in what Gnani [the enlightened one] believes the happiness in. What people regard as happiness is not happiness.

Things do not give unhappiness, ignorance (of one’s real Self) does.

One who experiences prasantta [blissful happiness] within, he will have prasantta [blissful happiness] externally. The mind is a mirror (reflection) for the external.

The law of nature is such that everyone gets happiness according to their needs. The ‘tender’ that everyone (of us) fills out, is indeed fulfilled.

The ‘egoism’ that is used to hurt others will hurt one’s own self. The ‘egoism’ that is used to give happiness to others becomes cause for his own happiness.

A person who thinks he is right, causes great hurt to others and that is why hurt will come to him. A person who believes ‘I am right’, causes a lot of pain to others.

Without the 'applied awareness' of the Soul, 'happiness' cannot arise.

Your success in worldly life (sansar) is in proportion to your faith and truthfulness!

You don't win races by wishing, you win them by running faster than everyone else does.

I want you to remember what was good in me, not what was most awful. The people you love should be allowed to keep their worst to themselves.

When I retired in 2002 I had retired to stay home with my family and didn't necessarily think my playing days were over.

I wish my father could be around.

Words inscribe a text in the same way that a walk inscribes space.

The heresy of one age becomes the orthodoxy of the next. Mere tolerance has given place to a sentiment of brotherhood between sincere men of all denominations.

I've probably understood men too well. I realise they are predatory by nature, and I have a certain acceptance of the male animal.

Love is reality, fear is an illusory concept created in your mind.

Music is like a lover that I can't commit to, but I seem to always find myself in bed with.

Strong communities ... embrace change. New discoveries require us to think differently and approach things differently, to think anew.
