“I know of no more beautiful prayer than that which the Hindus of old used in closing: May all that have life be delivered from suffering.”

“Bhagavan, the all-pervading, in every form, in every sect and religion is He alone. To be eager to love God is very fortunate; it is in fact His grace.
Man's love should be directed solely towards God, then only will there be peace and bliss. Ever take refuge at His feet. It is man's privilege to realize the One; the path to Truth is open to him.”

“A fair number of leading physicists and biologists have found parallels between modern science and Hindu ideas. In America, many writers such as J. D. Salinger (An Adventure in Vedanta: J.D. Salinger's the Glass Family), Henry Miller, Aldous Huxley, Gerald Heard, and Christopher Isherwood, were in contact with the Vedanta.
In Vedanta, they found a wide-open, universal, and philosophically oriented religion where even the penetrating scientific mind could find something to its taste.”

“Love is everlasting forgiveness. Wisdom is to see everything in relation to the whole.
If you understand that everything belongs to Him, you will be free of all burdens.
All sorrow comes from the sense of 'I' and 'mine'. All sorrow is due to one's keeping apart from God. When you are with Him all pain disappears.
By sorrow does the Lord dispel sorrow and by adversity does He destroy adversity. When this is done He sends no more suffering, no more adversity. This must be remembered at all times.”
