I have come to the conclusion that whether or not a person is a religious believer does not matter. Far more important is that they be a good human being.

By being inattentive to the needs of others, inevitably we end up harming them.

To me there is no difference whether president, beggar, or king.

Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day.

Use your human intelligence in the best way you can; transform your emotions in a positive way.

Passion is what gives sense to our life.

Scientists may study mainly matter but they cannot ignore the human mind, or consciousness: spiritual practitioners may be engaging mainly in developing the mind but they cannot completely ignore their physical needs. It is for this reason that I have always stressed the importance of combining both mental and the material approach to achieving happiness for humankind.
