The more your mind is restful, the more you're capable of dynamic activity.

I often say 'pursue excellence, ignore success.' Success is a by-product of excellence.

We must find out for ourselves that inside us is a god or goddess in embryo that wants to be born so that we can express our divinity.

I think if we can be totally nonviolent within our own self, because we are part of the web of life, we will restore cosmic harmony.

Without self knowledge, without understanding the working and functions of his machine, man cannot be free, he cannot govern himself and he will always remain a slave. What you WANT is irrelevant, what you've CHOSEN is at hand. You and I are essentially infinite choice-makers. In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.

The choices you make today design your future

There is a need for everyone's brain to be imprinted with more self-enhancing impulses: the impulse to peace over violence, love over fear, compassion over selfishness.
