“Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition; they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal.”

“Singing is as much an act of worship as is prayer.”

“I love acting. It is so much more real than life.”

“The real is very real to him, the unreal even more so.”

“We loosely talk of Self-realization, for lack of a better term. But how can one realize or make real that which alone is real? All we need to do is to give up our habit of regarding as real that which is unreal. All religious practices are meant solely to help us do this. When we stop regarding the unreal as real, then Reality alone will remain, and we will be That.”

“It is hardly an exaggeration to say that a chimpanzee kept in solitude is not a real chimpanzee at all.”

“All phenomena are real in some sense, unreal in some sense, meaningless in some sense, real and meaningless in some sense, unreal and meaningless in some sense, and real and unreal and meaningless in some sense.”

“Without the head, man is a dead body. So too, without prayers, all other acts of worship are lifeless.”

“God should be welcomed in the heart and not in the act of worship alone.”

“One prayer routine that is balanced and easy to remember is found in the word ACTS, an acrostic whose four letters stand for adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication.”
