Life-power rises by penetrating the body in the seventh plane, gets the layer of the cerebrum removed, and the ocean of Bliss of God is seen. It is called seeing the ocean of Satchidananda – the all Blissful aspect of God." - Sri Jibankrishna
Dipak Kumar Pramanik

Amit Ray
There is but one God. He at first appears as life-power in the body, and finally transforms into Supreme Bliss. These are all but various aspects of God with forms, and nothing can be said of God without any form .
Sri Jibankrishna or Diamond
In terms of experience, we want to make this (referring to the self) very pleasant. We want this to be blissful, ecstatic. But, as I said before, even being ecstatic is not goal by itself. If you are blissful by your own nature, then the important thing is that you are no more the issue. There are other issues in this existence; we can look at those. But if you are an issue, what other issue will you take in your hands? You will not touch anything. When I am enough trouble myself, why do I want to take on this one or that one? When I am no more an issue, now I am willing to dig into the whole existence and see what it is all about.
Sadhguru
In life the only things that you see are things that you are projecting, and life presents you with so many situations that demonstrate that this is so.
Osho
you feel what else is there to do in life apart from living? And even that is out of your control; it depends on an infinite number of factors. Everything is in your unconscious mind. Why sex desire arose in you, why you raised a family, how greed and anger entered you, why you were dishonest, why you accumulated wealth, why you made enemies – you have no idea! You are just like a puppet, whose strings are being pulled by someone else. You imagine you are dancing, but in fact it is someone else who is making you dance.Look closely at your life and you will find that you are nothing more than a puppet. How can anything real happen in the life of a man who is not his own master, but merely a puppet?
Osho
Always remember that you are the observer and not the doer. Do not take life to be anything more than acting. Don’t identify yourself too much with the action.Whether you are a wife or husband, a businessman or client, don’t get too involved. Don’t lose yourself in it, for you are simply playing a role in the play. Keep outside of it, and within yourself. These are all necessary parts of life. You must go to work, it is necessary. The play is delightful if you see it as play, but it is fatal if you take it to be life. There is no reason so disrupt your life. You have to play the part that life has given you.
Osho
You never suffer nearly as much as you imagine you suffer. You never suffer the illnesses you most dread nor the miseries that you fear.
Osho
They happen only when you are distant,aloof. They happen, they cannot be brought. They happen you cannot force them to happen. They are spontaneous happenings.
Osho
But life itself is without use. What is the purpose of it? Where are you going? What is the result? No purpose, no result, no goal. Life is a constant ecstasy, moment to moment you can enjoy it but if you start thinking of results you miss enjoying it, your roots are uprooted, you are no longer in it, you have become an outsider. And then you will ask for the meaning, for the purpose.
Osho
If you say, ’If those conditions are fulfilled then I will be blissful’, then these conditions are never going to be fulfilled. And, secondly, even if these conditions are fulfilled, by that time you will have lost the very capacity to celebrate and enjoy. And moreover, when these conditions are fulfilled – if ever, because they cannot be fulfilled – your mind will create further ideals.
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
Make your decisions like a rock & live your life like a flow of water
Arlin Sailesh Kapadia
When one is not able to take a decision out of many alternatives, the mind unconsciouslydivides into many parts – sometimes as many as the alternatives.
Girdhar Joshi
Think a hundred times before you take a decision, but once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush......unless the bird has the flu!
Ankala Subbarao
If I want to deprive you of your watch, I shall certainly have to fight for it; if I want to buy your watch, I shall have to pay for it; and if I want a gift, I shall have to plead for it; and, according to the means I employ, the watch is stolen property, my own property, or a donation. Thus we see three different results from three different means. Will you still say that the means do not matter?
Mahatma Gandhi
How do you behave when you win? When your enemies are at your mercy and your power has become absolute: what then?
Salman Rushdie
I hold that it is the duty of every cultured man or woman to read sympathetically the scriptures of the world. If we are to respect others'religions as we would have them to respect our own, a friendly study of theworld's religions is a sacred duty.
Mahatma Gandhi
Of what use is it to be tolerant of others if you are convinced that you are right and everyone who disagrees with you is wrong? That isn’t tolerance but condescension.
Anthony de Mello
For peace, let us teach the humanity, tolerance and nonviolence.
Debasish Mridha
For peace, let us teach humanity tolerance and nonviolence.
Debasish Mridha
Who constitutes the nation? Only the elite?Or do the hundreds of millions of poor in India also make up the nation? Are their interests never identified with national interest? Or is there more than one nation? That is the question you often run up against in some of India's poorest areas. Areas where extremely poor people go into destitution making way for firing ranges, jet fighter plants, coal mines, power projects, dams, sanctuaries, prawn and shrimp farms, even poultry farms. If the costs they bear are the 'price' of development, then the rest of the 'nation' is having one endless free lunch.
P.Sainath
I'm not talking about being against development. I'm talking about the politics of development. I'm talking about more development, not less. More democracy, not less. More modernization, not less. How do you break down this completely centralized, undemocratic process of decision-making? How do you make sure that it's decentralized and that people have power over their lives and their natural resources? I don't even believe in the modern business-like notion of "efficiency". It dovetails with totalitarianism, fascism. Peopl say, "If it's decentralized it will be inefficient." I think that's fine. Let it be inefficient.
Arundhati Roy
All must read their so-called 'holy' book - word by word - to determine, by self, its unholy bit.

Why are you choosing to be unhappy, when you're created for happiness?
Debasish Mridha
Act to create beauty without expecting results.
Debasish Mridha
There is nothing more secure in a relationship than a sense of insecurity.
Amit Abraham
So what is it that you are doing - seeking security in your restlessness? The desire to be secure is one of the most curious things. And that security must be recognized by the world; I don't know whether you see this. I write a book and in the book I find my security. But that book must be recognized by the world, otherwise there is no security. So look what I've done - my security lies in the opinion of the world!...So it means I am deceiving myself constantly.
Krishnamurti
Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
My mind ran over everything that had happened lately, and running on such thoughts made even my feet hurt.

Amit Abraham

Amit Abraham
If you don't steal time, time will loot you.
Hare Krishna Chandrasekaran
The present presses automatically on you. The future does not. To attend to the future requires bandwidth, which scarcity taxes. When scarcity taxes our bandwidth, we become even more focused on the here and now. We need cognitive resources to gauge future needs, and we need executive control to resist present temptations. As it taxes our bandwidth, scarcity focuses on the present, and leads us to borrow.
Sendhil Mullainathan
Marriage is not 'I', its 'We'.
Amit Kalantri
Even God forgives stupidity. So many married people, heaven would be a ghost town otherwise.
Yatin Patel
Had the love been perennial, there won’t have been murders of wives by husbands and murders of husbands by wives, who were lovers at a point of time.
Girdhar Joshi
Of all the roles she’d played – daughter, student, employee, sister and wife – wife was the smallest and in proportion the most difficult, as though it had run out of steam with its own scale. The word ‘wife’ was too small to accommodate its responsibility.
Meghna Pant
Weddings have logic, but Marriages have emotions
Santosh Avvannavar
