Sadguru’s quotes

“If you are truly a seeker of Truth, Truth can not hide from you. It is in the Lap of truth that you have happened. Most people who claim to be seekers are only seeking security, solace, or the fulfilment of their desires.”

“When your happiness is dependant upon what is happening outside of you, constantly you live as a slave to the external situation”

“Once the stillness comes into your life, then the mind also becomes absolutely still. When your mind becomes still, your intelligence explodes”.

“Just Desire the Highest in Life. All Your Passions, direct them to the Highest. Even if you get Angry, direct it only towards Shiva. Even with your Passion, that's the way to do it. Every bit of energy that you have, you expend it by making it into desire, passion, fear, anger, and many other things. May be these emotions are not in your hands for now, but channelling them in one direction is in your hands.”

“Only when you truly start seeking what is beyond the physical body, the spiritual processes open up for you.”

“Positive thinking is about trying to escape reality. It’s about wanting to look at one side of life, and missing out on another. You may ignore the other, but the other will not ignore you. Right now, you can choose to ignore a black cloud in the sky, but it’s not going to ignore you”.

“Because you do not know how to keep your systems in balance, because you can’t handle reality, you succumb to positive thinking. You want to skip the negative and just think positive. What you pursue will not be the strongest point in you. What you try to avoid becomes the basis of your consciousness. Positive thinking can have some psychological relevance, but no existential relevance whatsoever”
