Experience is the main reason why we're here, I think, in the world to gain experience and from our experience we gain knowledge. Oh, I think so, anyway. Knowledge and if we get any knowledge then we gain liberation.

I don't wear small shoes, or tight pants that squash your balls.

Life is like a rain drop on a lotus leaf. Everybody realises that you're either very lucky person or you're not.

I'm really quite simple. I don't want to be in the business full time because I'm a gardener. I plant flowers and watch them grow. I don't go out to clubs and partying. I stay at home and watch the river flow.

And so my music, it doesn't matter if I did it 20 years ago or if I did it tomorrow. It doesn't go with trends. My trousers don't get wider and tighter every six months. My music just stays what it is, and that's the way I like it.

What do you think of the criticism that you're not very good?

It's by your own actions you're able to get more in a mess or out of one. It's your own actions that relieve or bind you.
