Quote
Your mind is like a runway on airport. It can launch you in the sky so that you can fly to your desired destination. But you have become so attached to the airport that you are using the runway as a road to drive around.

You have trapped your soul inside the boundaries set by your mind. Body-mind are just instruments. There are a thousand instruments of same shape and size. Let your soul choose one freely.

Take any physical pain. Even in headache, you can’t think about past or future. You only think of pain which is in present. If Time is a thread on which you are moving, pain is a loop or knot in that thread. Once you get trapped in the loop, you need to do effort to get out,; you need to apply balm or take medicine.

Quote
If you were transported 500 years back in time and told them about mobile phones, they would call you mad and kill you. Even if you are an engineer, you wouldn’t be able to prove to them that mobile phones are real. They only understand clay and fire.Today when people say they can see things that you can’t see, you call them mentally ill. Don’t disregard experiences of others no matter how different they are from yours. Space-Time is infinite. Even things you can’t imagine exist inside it.

Quote
This morning, did you wake up in the same body in which you slept last night? Maybe you slept in the body of Ram and woke up in the body of Shyam. Now you think you are Shyam because you have taken up memories and everything that belongs to Shyam. Maybe you take a new body everyday. Rejoice! It's a new day and a new life!

Quote
When you are deeply attached to a celebrity player, his or her victory becomes your victory; loss becomes your loss. If you are attached to several players, at least one of them will win in a given day and give you something to cheer about.Similarly, a Yogi soul can switch characters and get attached to the one who is having happy experience at that moment.

Quote
Inside you, there is an Eagle (courage to face the unknown) and a Serpent (knowledge). Both should grow equally. If the Eagle grows more, you become a wandering ascetic. If the Serpent grows more, you become a philosopher. When they grow equally, one day the Eagle flies away with the Serpent. Then only the Enlightened being remains for whom there is nothing known or unknown.

Quote
Either see every particle of the universe as living (at atomic level, there is life-like movement even in a stone) or see everything as non-living (like 3D images appearing on a projection screen). If you keep dividing things as living and non-living, you can't go beyond human mind.

Quote
Suppose you have a weighing scale that has maximum weighing limit of 10kg. If I put things below 10 kg on it, it will measure them correctly. If I put an 11kg thing, it will measure it incorrectly as 10 kg. When you try to describe things that are beyond your limit, you end up describing yourself and your own limits.
