The happiness of the world is transitory. The less you become attached to the world, the more you enjoy peace of mind.

Let me tell you how to love all equally. Do not demand anything of those you love. If you make demands, some will give you more and some less. In that case you will love more those who give you more and less those who give you less. Thus your love will not be the same for all. You will not be able to love all impartially.

Ordinary human love results in misery. Love for God brings blessedness.

When one realizes God, He grants knowledge and illumination from within; one knows it oneself. In the fullness of one's spiritual realization one will find that He who resides in one's heart, resides in the hearts of others as well - the oppressed, the persecuted, the untouchable, and the outcast.

One must be patient like the earth. What iniquities are being perpetuated on her! Yet she quietly endures them all.

As clouds are blown away by the wind, the thirst for material pleasures will be driven away by the utterance of the Lord's name.

The difference between a great soul and an ordinary man is this: the latter weeps while leaving this body, whereas the former laughs. Death seems to him a mere play.
