"Satyam (truth) is the seed. Ahimsa is the root. Meditation is the shower. Santi (peace) is the flower. Moksha (salvation) is the fruit. Therefore, speak the truth, practise Ahimsa and meditation. Cultivate Santi. You will attain the final emancipation or freedom from the trammels of births and deaths, and enjoy Eternal bliss."

"May this bright New Year’s day and all the succeeding days of this year and all the future years also bring you all success, peace, prosperity and happiness. May you all tread the path of Truth and righteousness!

• Thank God for giving you this world as a moral gymnasium to help your development, but never imagine you can help the world.

• When there is a conflict between the heart and the brain, let the heart be followed .... the intellect has only one state, i.e. reason .... it works within that and cannot go beyond. It is the heart which can take you to the highest plane. It goes beyond the limits of the intellect and attains to what is called inspiration.

• Never mind the struggle, the mistakes -- I never heard a cow tell a lie, but it is only a cow ... never a man. So never mind these failures, these little drawbacks; hold the ideal a thousand times, and if you fail a thousand times, make the attempt once more.

•  In real meditation you forget the body. You may be cut to pieces and not feel it at all. You feel such pleasure in it. You become so light. This perfect rest we will get in meditation.

•  Learn to feel yourself in other bodies, to know that we are all one. Throw all other nonsense to the winds. Spit out your actions, good or bad, and never think of them again. What is done is done. Throw off superstition. Have no weakness even in the face of death. Do not repent, do not brood over past deeds. Be âzâd ("free").
