Ego + Infinity are Opposites

“Ego and infinity are totally opposite. Spirituality is nothing but infinity. When you are angry, upset or rude, you are talking from an ego point of view, from a limited point of view.”

“God's fear only means don't harm anybody. "Ahimsa," compassion. That's what it means. God's fear does not mean stand and shake. Don't take that concept, please. God's fear means when you have a fear of God you shall not do wrong to anyone, including you.”

“What is God? In reality it is your own positive self, your higher Self, your universal Self, the Self which knows no defeat, the Self which can rise again and again and again like a wave in the ocean.”

“Give yourself a chance to have the presence of God work through you...Let the presence of God, through your life, start to be known and felt. Give it a chance. God gave you life. Make this life a chance for the presence of God to be felt through you.”

“Those who see whatever is happening around them as God are always tapped into their known and unknown.”

“Love and God and God and love are nothing but a projection of your own self. Those who can love can be God. Those who are God can love.”

“In your life there will be good days and bad days, normal days and abnormal days, right days and wrong days, but you must understand that every day has to be followed by a night and every life has to end. Don't waste your life in reactions.”

“Life is a continuous vibration of up and down. And in this up and down, try to be neutral; be seated in your own spiritual integrity.”

“Never give a man your opinion; they get offended. Let him ask your opinion. What is a man? He is pure, living, shining ego. When you give your opinion, he has to counteract it; he has to. When he asks your opinion, he has to obey it because he asked. The same ego which is going to reject is going to obey. Do you understand the psychology?”

“It is the committed woman who can have a committed man. Man is committed in equal proportion to the woman as life goes on. If you commit two hundred percent, man will be committed two hundred percent. If you commit twenty percent, man will be committed twenty percent.”
