Quotes

Choose your associations wisely — walk with those who share noble goals, uplifting thoughts, and high values.
The Guru is a true friend who stands by you through your ignorance, growth and awakening.
A stone remains warm long after the sun has set. Current pain is just a lingering echo of the past, not your true nature.
Let your inner foundation be so strong that the world cannot shake you; instead let your peace and love uplift all those around you.

Salutations to the Guru, whose glance is grace and whose silence is scripture. In His presence, doubts dissolve and the light of Truth dawns within.
When we care for the planet, we care for the future. Conservation is compassion extended to generations yet to come.
Check: Do you only respect your Guru, or are you aligned with Him as well?
As a lamp lights another without losing its own flame, so does the Guru awaken countless hearts while ever abiding in fullness.
