When the wrong belief [of ‘I am Chandubhai’] goes away, the inner burning [antar daah, inner suffering] goes away. Inner burning is the result of the illusion [of ‘I am Chandubhai’].

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!

For me, the martial arts is a search for something inside. It's not just a physical discipline.

Do what you think is interesting, do something that you think is fun and worthwhile, because otherwise you won't do it well anyway.

This year Halloween fell on a weekend Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin' Robbin' little kids for bags.

We are always dying, all the time. That's what living is; living is dying, little by little. It is a sequenced collection of individualized deaths.

As you get older, you're not afraid of doubt. Doubt isn't running the show. You take out all the self-agonizing.

I really think the key to any movie is that you tell the story kind of in a fulsome way, with depth, with skill, and you will find your audience.

If I had children, I would be very selfish. I wouldn't be out doing things. But by not having kids, it makes me freer to travel the world and talk about things I feel are important.

Probably if you look like Tyra Banks, it probably is hard, even if you are really smart, for people to take - it surprises some.

If you want to follow Jesus because He'll fix your marriage, if you want to follow Jesus because He'll give you a better life, that's idolatry. Follow Christ for the sake of Christ; He is worthy!

The only time I'm totally happy is when I'm watching films or making them.
