Quotes by H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
" How far to heaven? Just open your eyes and look. You are in heaven."
"You are Divine. You are part of me. I am part of you."
"You have been given the highest blessing, the most precious knowledge on this planet. You *are* the Divine Self; you are part of the Self. Walk with that confidence. It's not arrogance. It's, again, Love."
"Your mind is trying to find an escape and doesn't want to rise to that level to which the master is trying to raise you, trying to pull you up."
"Want, or desire, arises when you are not happy. Have you seen this? When you are very happy then there is contentment. "Contentment" means "no want".
""Want" is always hanging on to the "I." When the "I" itself is dissolving, "want" also dissolves, disappears."
"Behind everything is your ego: "I, I, I, I." But in seva there is no "I," because it has to be done for someone else. It is for the need of the time, or surrounding people, that you do it."
"So what if somebody recognizes you: "Oh, you are a wonderful person." So what? In that person's mind that thought came and went. It is also finished. That mind has gone. Maybe they keep an attraction for you for some days, some months, so what? That also goes it also goes."
"Much energy is wasted in trying to charm others. And in wanting to charm---I tell you, the opposite happens."
"By self-study, by observing, by being hollow and empty, you become a channel---you become a part of the Divine. You are able to feel the presence of the Divinity. All the different angels and devas, all these different forms of our consciousness, start blossoming."
"Some feeling came into you, unpleasant feeling, and you said, "Should not come, it should not come!" Doing that, you are resisting it. When you resist, it persists. Just observe. See, "Oh!" Go deep into it. Dance; stand up on your feet and dance. Be intoxicated; move intoxicated."
"Life is nothing to be very serious about. Life is a ball in your hands to play with. Don't hold on to the ball."
"Meditation is THE comfort in Life."
