„Nagyon könnyű követni a szüleidet,
nagyon könnyű követni a tanáraidat,
nagyon könnyű követni a társadalmat,
nagyon könnyű engedelmeskedni...
Lázadónak lenni, a magad ura lenni nagyon nehéz.
De a növekedés a nehéz úton jön.”

„A növekedés csak akkor lehetséges, ha van hiányosság.”

„Az igazi kérdés nem az, hogy létezik-e élet a halál után. Az igazi kérdés az, hogy élsz-e a halál előtt.”

„Az élet apró dolgokból áll. Ezek akkor válnak naggyá, ha szeretünk.”

„A bátorság az ismeretlennel való szerelem.”

„Csak ülök csendben, semmit nem csinálok, a tavasz eljön, és a fű nő magától…”

„Nincs mit elérni. Az életet nem kell elérni, megvalósítani; az élet egy ajándék. Már megadatott – mire vársz?”

„Csak olyat mondj, amit valóban úgy is gondolsz. Az élet rövid, nem szabad tönkretenned azzal, hogy folyton a következményeken aggódsz. Teljes, intenzív és boldog életet kell élned, akár egy nyitott könyv, amely elérhető bárkinek, aki bele akar olvasni.”

„Lényednek csupán egy apró sarkában élsz: a parányi tudatos elmében. Olyan ez, mintha valakinek lenne egy palotája, de teljesen megfeledkezne róla, elkezdene a tornácon élni – és azt gondolná, hogy annyi az egész.”

„Ne hallgass arra, hogy mások szerint milyennek kellene lenned. Mindig a belső hangra figyelj, arra, hogy te milyen szeretnél lenni.”

„Egyszer ez történt: A fiatal atléta épphogy visszatért az Olimpiáról egy ládányi éremmel, amikor megbetegedett. A kórházban az orvos megmérte a lázát, majd elégedetlenül megcsóválta a fejét, és azt mondta:”

„Légy hű önmagadhoz - ez az egyetlen feladatod. Mindenkinek csupán önmagáért kell vállalnia a felelősséget.”

“You say that in heaven there is eternal beauty. The eternal beauty is here and now, not in heaven.”

“The whole day was strange, stunning, and it was a shattering experience. The past was disappearing, as if it had never belonged to me, as if I had read about it somewhere, as if I had dreamed about it, as if it was somebody else's story I have heard and somebody told it to me. I was becoming loose from my past, I was being uprooted from my history, I was losing my autobiography. I was becoming a non-being, what Buddha calls anatta. Boundaries were disappearing, distinctions were disappearing.”

“All the Buddhas of all the ages have been telling you a very simple fact: Be — don't try to become. Within these two words — being and becoming, your whole life is contained. Being is enlightenment, becoming is ignorance.”

“When I am gone I hope there may still be courageous people in the world to criticize me, so that I don't become a hindrance on anybody's path. And those who will criticize me will not be my enemies; neither am I the enemy of those whom I have criticized. The working of the enlightened masters just has to be understood.”

“Be realistic: Plan for a miracle.”

“The tantra masters are simply wild flowers, they have everything in them.”

“Near about twelve my eyes suddenly opened — I had not opened them. The sleep was broken by something else. I felt a great presence around me in the room. It was a very small room. I felt a throbbing life all around me, a great vibration — almost like a hurricane, a great storm of light, joy, ecstasy. I was drowning in it. It was so tremendously real that everything became unreal. The walls of the room became unreal, the house became unreal, my own body became unreal. Everything was unreal because now there was for the first time reality.”

“Tantra says there is nobody above you whom you have to follow, through whom you have to get your pattern.”

“I am the rich man's guru.”

“The so-called mahatmas and saints are all cowards. I have never come across a single mahatma—Hindu, Mohammedan, Christian, Buddhist—who can be said to be really a rebellious spirit. Unless one is rebellious, one is not religious. Rebellion is the very foundation of religion.”

“The first thing to be understood about a man like Jesus is that whatsoever the church that is bound to grow around such a man says about him, it is bound to be wrong. What the Christian church says about Christ cannot be true. In fact the Christian priest does not represent Christ at all. He is the same old rabbi in new garments, the same old rabbi who was responsible for Jesus murder.”

“Tantra is a great yea-sayer; it says yes to everything.”

“All the Buddhas of all the ages have been telling you a very simple fact: Be — don't try to become.”

“One is not in love, one is love.”

“Life is without purpose – life is its own purpose,
therefore he who lives without purpose truly lives.
Live! Isn’t living itself enough?”
