“We are not strangers in this journey of life…We are connected to each other through this mysterious field of love.”

“Real love is a humble receptivity of a silent heart that is prepared to melt and merge…”

“Love and ego can never exist together, just as the Sun and shadow cannot.”

“No one and nothing outside of you can give you salvation, or free you from the misery. You have to light your own lamp. You have to know the miniature universe that you yourself are.”

“do we not love each other enough, or do we love ourselves too much!”

“Sunsets are loved because they vanish.Flowers are loved because they go.The dogs of the field and the cats of the kitchen are loved because soon they must depart.These are not the sole reasons, but at the heart of morning welcomes and afternoon laughters is the promise of farewell. In the gray muzzle of an old dog we see goodbye. In the tired face of an old friend we read long journeys beyond returns.”

“God, how we get our fingers in each other's clay. That's friendship, each playing the potter to see what shapes we can make of each other.”
