The tension between the essence of spiritual teachings and the harmful fundamentalism that often arises in the name of religion is an issue that has engaged my mind practically as far back as I can remember.

What touches our hearts and impresses us deeper is sacrifice and humility, when we see someone accept the higher principle of cooperation, putting aside his/her own achievements.

A devotee's life should be so exemplary that it increases the faith upon other devotees.

In giving respect we can be very happy, because we can do it in all situations. When we expect respect we are miserable, because it is not that everyone in every situation will respect us.

There is false humility and genuine humility and between them, there is a desire of the practitioner to become humble.

To protect any community, we need intelligence and to nourish it we need humility.

If someone takes responsibility without force, that is love.
