Most of the sorrow in the world is because of this: speech -- what people say. If they kept their lips tight, ninety percent of the problems in the world would be over.

Remembering and Re-living

There is a difference between remembering and re-living. Re-living is something else. You become alive again

Unlimited Joy

Your mind is not ready for limitations. It wants unlimited joy, unlimited pleasure---which the five senses cannot give you.

Every Storm

Every storm that has come into your life has widened your horizon, has made you deep and more powerful. Every storm has destroyed some smallness in you, something in you that has been very small.

Pain in the mind

Your concept in the mind that things should be a certain way causes pain in the mind. The cause of distress is set concepts in the mind.

Everything is God

This entire universe is made up of God. There is nothing outside God.

Arms Open

Stand there with your arms open and say, "What storms may come--let them. I am here." You grow out of them. You become bigger.

Maintaining Equanimity

Take life not serious. If you take life very serious, then you are bound to be disturbed. The only way you can maintain your equanimity is to take it as a play, as a game, and not take anything too serious.

Problems have enriched your life

Many problems have come, many problems have been solved, and each problem has enriched life in some way, has brought up some strength in you.

Destiny and Free Will

Take the past as destiny and the future as free will. What was meant to happen, happened. We tend to do the reverse. People who are foolish think the past is free will and the future is destiny. This only makes you miserable in the present. 

infinite nature

In the morning, when you walk, become aware of your infinite nature. You are like the sky. You are infinity. And walk with that infinity nature. Move through this world like a white cloud, unstained, untouched.

Intense Joy

When we get in touch with the source of life, then all of other tensions, worries which have been clouding this manifestation, fall off and we can sing, dance, and be happy. Life can become very intense, intense in the sense of being joyful.

Drop the Past

Now. Now. Now. Cultivate this habit of dropping the past. Then you can smile.

Inside You

Krishna is inside you; God, the Divine is inside you---have an inner connection with the Divine.

Heart and Head

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

No Answers

In questions, you are looking for an answer. In wonder, there is no answer

Arms Open

Stand there with your arms open and say, "What storms may come--let them. I am here." You grow out of them. You become bigger.

Perfect Balance

Life needs to be a perfect balance between sound and silence, between dynamic activity and stillness, between being funny and jovial, and then being serious. If one aspect is missing, life is incomplete. If you are only serious, and not funny, then it's not complete. If you are only funny, you become superficial. You are not deep. Silence is our ability to switch between them, this is most important.

compassion

When there is a wound deep inside a person, he will try to share that with other people. What else can he do? You just recognize: "Oh, he needs compassion." Compassion is the only medicine. Unconditional love is the only treatment.

Destroying Sins

A few moments of the experience of Divine Love can destroy all the sins, all the guilt, all the negativity---not only in and around the person, but all over.
