Enlightenment is very possible for the ordinary individual. Actually, it is easier than for someone who thinks that they are special.
Ravi ShankarIn our culture we have such respect for musical instruments, they are like part of God.
Ravi ShankarWhether you are aware of them or not, whether you recognize them as spiritual or not, you probably have had the experiences of silence, or transcendence, or the Divine-a few seconds, a few minutes that seem out of time; a moment when the ordinary looks beautiful, glowing; a deep sense of being at peace, feeling happy for no reason. When these experiences come...believe in them. They reflect your true nature.
Ravi Shankar
