" When you realize you did wrong, that is sadhana also. "

(Living with the Soul, p.121)

 

" By means of the path of the intuitive vision of the Guru, the mind should be

made pure. The impermanent and other divisions should not be a bondage to the

soul. "

(Guru Gita, vs.99)

 

" People think that the time to be spiritual is when they are meditating or

performing a spiritual practice, but all the time is the time to be spiritual.

Your spirituality cannot be awakened if you only do it a few moments a day or a

few hours a day. It can only be awakened if you live a spiritual life. It cannot

be awakened as a practice. It's not about practices. It's about being in love

with life. "

(Before Becoming This, p. 266)

 

" Our minds slip back, even unconsciously, into old patterns of behaviour. But

when we love something very much, all the little loves yield to the big love.

The thing we love the most we pay the most attention to, and that is the only

way to get out of that trap. "

(Before Becoming This, p.147)

 

" Hey Slayer of Passion and Anger! Expand your mouth. Quickly eat all these Seeds

of Desire and all these great thoughts that come from the Seed of Desire when he

is struck with the blows of my weapons. Stroll about the battlefield and eat all

of the great thoughts born of that blood, and as all of the blood is wasted, he

will soon destroy himself. "

(Chandi Path, Chapter 8, vs54f.)
