When somebody is massaging your head, you will notice that they tend to leave one spot untouched. You will say, “Why are you leaving the spot where it is itching the most?” The truth is, that spot is itching the most because it is being left out.“Why am I not getting the thing I want the most?” should be rephrased as “I am itching to get this thing because I am not getting it.” The power of a desire lies in the difficulty to fulfil it.

If we see the universe as a whole, nothing is changing in it. The scenes of the past are still there in the past. The scenes of future are already there in the future. You, the soul, are passing through them and experiencing the illusion of change. Karma gives you the fuel, Desires give you direction. If you didn't have any Karma or Desires, you would just float in eternity.

If your needs (not desires) are within your resources, you are blessed. If a blessed person has no friends, universe does not create situations in which he would need a friend.

A cave is formed naturally, by interplay of five elements. Since human beings are nothing but waves of five elements, aren't man-made houses natural too?

A monk is in a boat in the middle of the ocean. The full moon is shining majestically in the sky. He has a telepathic conversation with an astronaut walking on the moon and says, “No, Mr. Astronaut. You are not on the moon. I am on the moon. You are just walking on some rocks.”The experience of the supreme truth is like watching a full moon. When we try to descend that experience to the physical level, when we try to analyze it with the mind, it is just rocks.

If you uncover yourself and find who you are, the universe will also uncover itself before you, If you try to forcefully uncover the universe without uncovering yourself, you will meet endless layers after layers of planets, stars, galaxies, black holes, dark matter and what not!

Where there are people, there is a drama, a story, a circus. It doesn't matter if they are in a corporate office or a spiritual group.

Walk around after a good rain has given nice bath to everything. You may feel like you're walking inside a movie. You may even get a glimpse of the creator.

Don't try to impose silence and peace on your mind. Such a silence and peace will be momentary and superficial. When you jump from the boat of mind, you will fall in the depths of eternal peace and silence.
