In my path, three things are really important. One is associating with people who inspire us with their positive influence. The company we keep is very important. Number two is our spiritual practice. Putting aside sacred time every day to make that journey within, to tune into the frequency of our true nature and the love and the grace that is within us. Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.

Why are we not tasting the bliss of Bhakti? Because we are taking shelter of stone boats. We are sinking and drowning in Maya & still we are further taking shelter of stone boats and this can go on life after life.

Tolerance means to fix our mind, to fix our words, & our actions on a higher principle.

The more one makes spiritual advancement, one feels humble and as one's devotion is superficial that much he feels that he is a great devotee.

If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die, rather it manifests in the form of compassion. That is universal love. It is not just a sentiment. It cannot be manifested merely by a shift in mental disposition. It can only come from inner cleaning, an inner awakening.

Pure devotional service fries the seeds of material inclinations in our heart.

We can not imitate great souls. However to study, analyse and imbibe the principles they teach and embody, is the path of progress.
