The knowledge from an enlightened person breaks on the hard rocks of ignorance.

If you are open with someone, he will be open with you. If you want love from someone, give your love to him. If you want kind and sympathetic behavior from someone, be kind and sympathetic to him.

Behaviour arises from the level of one's consciousness.

Monks are not expected to speak about themselves; the message is important, not the person.

All speech, action and behavior are fluctuations of consciousness. All life emerges from, and is sustained in, consciousness. The whole universe is the expression of consciousness. The reality of the universe is one unbounded ocean of consciousness in motion.

There is nothing in the cosmos, either in the material plane or the spiritual plane which cannot be directly cognized.

I did not become great by association of The Beatles! Beatles make Maharishi great? Pah! It is a waste of thought.
