Music fills the infinite between two souls. This has been muffled by the mist of our daily habits.

If I call not thee in my prayers, if I keep not thee in my heart, thy love for me still waits for my love.

Let my doing nothing when I have nothing to do, become untroubled in its depth of peace, like the evening in the seashore when the water is silent.

The water vessel, taken as a vessel only, raises the question, "Why does it exist at all?" Through its fitness of construction, it offers the apology for its existence. But where it is a work of beauty it has no question to answer; it has nothing to do, but to be.

If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.

Joy is there everywhere; it is superfluous, unnecessary; nay, it very often contradicts the most peremptory behests of necessity. It exists to show that the bonds of law can only be explained by love; they are like body and soul. Joy is the realisation of the truth of oneness, the oneness of our soul with the world and of the world-soul with the supreme lover.

A lamp can only light another lamp when it continues to burn in its own flame.
