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.

The only real protection will come from doing a spiritual practice over a prolonged period of time. Because it retrains us to see the world and ourselves in a different way.

I knew that if I did not start chanting with people, that I would never be able to clean out the dark corners of my own heart. I knew it with every cell in my body and mind.

It takes two to tango! I need everybody to sing with me.

When our desires are fulfilled, and we still feel unhappy - this is the moment we begin the process of letting go.

The Presence is our own presence. We are not getting anything from the outside. We already have all we need inside.

Don't wait for a Guru. Your life is your Guru.
