Imitation has to be avoided. Understanding should be the only law, never imitation.

All that is great cannot be possessed - and that is one of the most foolish things man goes on doing. We want to possess.

Let this become your key - next time when anger comes, just watch it. Don't say.

The ego and the personality have to be dropped, then you will find individuality arising...a feeling of uniqueness. Yes, you are unique. Everybody else is also unique. In this world only unique people exist, so comparison is just stupid, because you alone are like yourself. There is nobody like you, so how to compare?

Only those who are ready to become nobodies are able to love.

Become more watchful and anger will be less and greed will be less and jealousy will be less.

Sannyas is celebration of life, and sin is natural: natural in the sense that you are unconscious - what else can you do? In unconsciousness, sin is bound to happen. Sin simply means that you don't know what you are doing, you are unaware, so whatsoever you do goes wrong. But to recognize that "I am a sinner" is the beginning of a great pilgrimage. To recognize that "I am a sinner" is the beginning of real virtue. To see that "I am ignorant" is the first glimpse of wisdom.
