My patients taught me not how to die, but how to live.

If we make our goal to live a life of compassion and unconditional love, then the world will indeed become a garden where all kinds of flowers can bloom and grow.

We make progress in society only if we stop cursing and complaining about its shortcomings and have the courage to do something about them.

Death is simply a shedding of the physical body, like the butterfly coming out of a cocoon. . . . It's like putting away your winter coat when spring comes.

Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.

I'm going to dance in all the galaxies.

There is no need to go to India or anywhere else to find peace. You will find that deep place of silence right in your room, your garden or even your bathtub.
