You may repeat the most marvelous poems. And that is not worth a cent if you don't live it.

Training the intellect does not result in intelligence. Intelligence comes into being when one acts in perfect harmony, both intellectually and emotionally.

Belief creates its own experience; therefore, such an experience is not true.

You can be creative only when there is abandonment-which means, really, there is no sense of compulsion, no fear of not being, of not gaining, of not arriving. Then there is great austerity, simplicity, and with it there is love.

But inwardly we are as corrupt as the person who sits in an office and plans war-because, we want to be somebody in the family, in a group, in society, in the nation.

Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay.
