There are five stages of meditation, each one leading gradually into the next: concentration, meditation, contemplation, illumination, and inspiration.

America, like all nations, has to renounce war.

It's an utter, utter necessity to renounce war forever. And nothing new can be built until this is done.

The members of humanity are really and truly souls. We're all part of one great oversoul.

The masters are men like us who have evolved ahead of us and come to the end of the evolution as a human being on planet earth.

We've poisoned our planet to a desperate degree. We have no idea of how severe the toxification is.

Nothing needs a war. There is no problem that needs a war to bring it to a resolution.

Unless you have money today, you cannot live life according to your need.

We need a total renunciation of war. We must renounce war totally, because now we can destroy all life on earth.

Sharing is the answer for humanity. When we share we recognize that God is our brother, and unless we have that trust created by sharing, then nothing can be done.

If there was a war, a big war, a major war on the planet, it would be a nuclear war, and it would destroy all life, human and subhuman, on planet earth.

It is not important who you are

Serving with love, a kind heart, and without expectations is happiness.

Men and women are like right and left hands it doesn't make sense not to use both.

Almost all of our sorrows spring out of our relations with other people.

I think it's one of the scars in our culture that we have too high an opinion of ourselves. We align ourselves with the angels instead of the higher primates.

You can't live in paradise—but you are living right here. Make this your paradise or make this your hell. The choice is entirely yours. Really.

'Duck Dynasty' is a ridiculous show, and long may it wave. America and democracy will endure. They've seen a lot worse.

There is always a limit to self-indulgence, but none to self-restraint.

To snatch the worm from the trap.

Feel it in thy heart and then say whether it is of God!
