Usually when I draw, I try to be in a contemplative mood. I try to keep my mind as empty, vacant and tranquil as possible. The outer mind is like the surface of the sea. On the surface, the sea is full of waves and surges; it is all restlessness. But when we dive deep below, the same sea is all peace, calmness and quiet, and there we find the source of creativity.

Hope and faith are two intimate brothers; they always go together. Hope nourishes faith and faith treasures hope.

Our goal is self-transcendence

I live in between My heart's compassion-rain And my life's oneness-gain.

Paradise is not a place; it's a state of consciousness.

Hope is not an idle term. Hope is the reality that can and does reveal itself to us at God's choice hour. To hope is to know the secret of achievement.

Just becauseWe cannot see,We are not entitled to doubt.
