Become like the earth, like the tree – simply life. If you are simply life, your human consciousness will naturally find expression.
If you knew the pain of a tree, an animal, or anything in existence as you know the pain of your body, you would keep everything well.
Wherever you are, whatever you are exposed to, pick up the best from every situation. Let not life’s experience go waste.
If you want to make yourself miserable, you have endless opportunities, because always, someone will do something you do not like.
If you are in a state of reaction, anyone or anything can take charge of your life. Conscious response is the way forward.
A teacher has to be inspirational, vibrant, and straight enough to create a thirst for knowledge, not just transmit information.
The body and the mind are phenomenally connected. If you can keep your body still, the mind will also become still after a while.
Life knows no failure. Failure exists only for those who are always comparing themselves with others.
The elemental composition of the human body is such that 72% is water, 12% is earth, 6% is air, 4% is fire, the remaining is akash or space. For one to live well, water plays the most important role because 72% of the body is water.
Suffering is always self-created. Pain is just of the body; it is a natural phenomenon. Without pain, you would not know if your leg got chopped off.
