Only those will apprehend religion who can probe its depth, who can combine intuition and love with the rigor of method

Prayer begins where our power ends.

Mundus vult decipi'—the world wants to be deceived. To live without deception presupposes standards beyond the reach of most people whose existence is largely shaped by compromise, evasion and mutual accommodation. Could they face their weakness, their vanity and selfishness, without a mask?

Knowledge-like the sky- is never private property. No teacher has a right to withhold it from anyone who asks for it. Teaching is the art of sharing.

The task of life is to face sacred moments.

Philosophy may be defined as the art of asking the right question...awareness of the problem outlives all solutions. The answers are questions in disguise, every new answer giving rise to new questions.

The higher goal of spiritual living is not to amass a wealth of information, but to face sacred moments.
