You cannot think your way out of a box made of thought.

I chant to save my heart. Every time I sit down, that's what I'm doing.

This is what I do to keep my head screwed on semi-straight and keep my heart open. Whenever I sing, that's why I sing. Whether it's at the Grammys, whether it's in the bathroom, whether it's in front of 10,000 people or three people, by my guru's grace, my head stays in that place.

There is love in this world, and it lives within us as who we really are, not who we think we are.

It's within your world that things will unfold and intuitive understandings will open up.

All we can know is our own subjective version of reality. That's the way we go through our lives. Everybody.

If you stub your toe, you don't need to dialog yourself to be good to your foot, do you? When you see things that clearly, there's no dialogue or emotional manipulation that you need to do to extend compassion to that being, because that being is a part of you, and if that being hurts, you hurt.
