When all doors are shut and you have nowhere to go, that is when you go within. Every crisis is an opportunity and you are the beginning.

Shiva is chidambaram, like the inner sky. Shiva is the inner sky of consciousness

Today is a gift from God - that is why it is called the present.

Nothing in the world can bother you as much as your own mind.

Love is giving everything and taking nothing

If we sit deep in meditation, the glow within the body will brighten, and will expand and spread outside. That is Devi Puja

When heart speaks and heart listens, harmony is produced. When head talks and head listens, argument is produced.

Every moment you spend on this planet, remember that you are here for a unique purpose & cause, far greater than to just eat, sleep & talk.

For success in life you need yukti (skill) and shakti (strength), Bhakti (Devotion ) and Mukti (Freedom).

Love is preserved by wisdom. Destroyed by demand, tested by doubt, nourished by longing. It blossoms with faith and grows with gratitude.

Your love is unique. Let love remain love, don’t give it any name. The love that is defined by a relationship is limited. The love that is beyond relationships, that is true love

Never forget that time is the most valuable thing we can spend, so don't throw it away!

We prefer to be around others who bring out the best in us and make us feel good, don’t we? Customers want to do business with people who make them feel valued, appreciated, and happy.

We are here to abet creation and to witness to it, to notice each other's beautiful face and complex nature so that creation need not play to an empty house.

We have to be focused on growing the party and getting young people to see us as a viable option.

Much of the discussion about socialism and individualism is entirely pointless, because of failure to agree on terminology.
