If we sit deep in meditation, the glow within the body will brighten, and will expand and spread outside. That is Devi Puja

When all doors are shut and you have nowhere to go, that is when you go within. Every crisis is an opportunity and you are the beginning.

When heart speaks and heart listens, harmony is produced. When head talks and head listens, argument is produced.

Every moment you spend on this planet, remember that you are here for a unique purpose & cause, far greater than to just eat, sleep & talk.

The Pentagon's lost entire countries.

My daughter and I are very close, we speak every single day and I call her every day and I say the same thing, "pick up, I know you're there."

Creativity is an unending exercise in uncertainty.

I just don't see the point in beating myself up. I think it's more productive to concentrate on being a better person right now than punishing myself for who I was in the past.

We're kind of an international phenomenon.
