A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.

One cannot completely get rid of the six passions: lust, anger, greed, and the like. Therefore one should direct them to God. If you must have desire and greed, then you should desire love of God and be greedy to attain Him.

Travel in all the four quarters of the earth, you will find nothing (no true religion) anywhere. Whatever there is, is only here (i .e . in one 's own heart.)

The winds of God's grace are always blowing, it is for us to raise our sails.

Common men talk bagfuls of religion but do not practise even a grain of it. The wise man speaks a little, even though his whole life is religion expressed in action.

When the flower blooms, the bees come uninvited.
