The sign that the kundalini is releasing is not the development of miraculous powers, but that your mind is becoming quieter.

You want to be happy; of course, that isn't how you get to be happy; because if you want to be happy, you are going to be sitting around being unhappy because you're not happy.

Do not envy others. If someone gets a larger piece of cake, be happy for them. They'll get fat and you'll stay thin.

In tantra, samsara is viewed as the same thing as nirvana. Eating a hamburger is meditation.

I like extreme athletics, extreme meditation and extremely beautiful women. Perhaps I'm an extreme person, or it's simply my Karma. But I must tell you, as if you hadn't read about me in a newspaper or seen me on a magazine format television show, there are extreme risks involved with all three.

Very few people are happy in this world. Most are miserable. Even in their so-called happiness, they are unhappy; it is so short of ecstasy, of god-consciousness; it's almost pitiful.

There is a time you can't turn it back. When a person is very destructive, when they hate you tremendously, you have to disassociate with them.
