Some husbands think, "This is my wife," or a parent thinks "This is my child." From a spiritual perspective, this is a misconception. The higher truth is: "This wife is God's beloved daughter, entrusted in my care. And the way I serve God is by giving her respect, protection, appreciation and empowerment. This is what God wants me to give his child."

The challenge of co-operation in today's age of quarrel can be achieved by adjusting every situation according to the higher principle of loving God.

To measur whether it is humility or depression, check whether you are advancing spiritually or going down.

When we are honoured for a thing, we become attached to that thing.

I traveled around America and then at nineteen, went to Europe and hitchhiked from London to the Himalayas in India. I studied various forms of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and in India, various forms of Buddhism and Hinduism. Eventually, I came to the path of unconditional love and devotion to the one God, who in our tradition we call Krishna. I met my guru and became a swami. This allowed me to share that gift, which I consider to be a very deep universal expression of compassion.

The more you feel you are fallen; the more you fall in love with God.

Death is not big thing, what is important is God's service.
