To have a desire means to have dependency.

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!

Dependency on stuff, on people and on things is one of the greatest things that could kill.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends upon the unreasonable man.

It's such a thing now, people making fun of other people on the Internet.

I just grew the hair on my back. Facial hair just wasn't appealing to me. I liked it on my back, though.

Find what you can do best that renders service to others and do it with all your might.

Why not give Christianity a trial?

Maximum individuality within maximum community

I don't know if this makes me a bad person or whatever, but it's hard for me to get interested in other people's vacations.

I took everything really seriously and was overly sensitive about things, and I think that's rooted in perfectionism.

I learnt the hard way about positioning in business, about catering to the right segments.
