Quotes
- “I exist without the cosmic shadow,But it could not live bereft of me;As the sea exists without the waves,But they breathe not without the sea.Dreams, wakings, states of deep turiya sleep,Present, past, future, no more for me,But the ever-present, all-flowing, I, I everywhere.Consciously enjoyable,Beyond the imagination of all expectancy,Is this, my samadhi state.”
- “Thou art I, I am Thou,Knowing, Knower, Known, as One!”
- “Not an unconscious state Or mental chloroform without wilful return,Samadhi but extends my realm of consciousnessBeyond the limits of my mortal frameTo the boundaries of eternity,Where I, the Cosmic Sea,Watch the little ego floating in Me.”
- “Grosser light vanishes into eternal raysOf all-pervading Cosmic Joy.From Joy we come,For Joy we live,In the sacred Joy we melt.”
- “I, the ocean of mind, drink all creation’s waves.The four veils of solid, liquid, vapor, light,Lift aright.Myself, in everything,Enters the Great Myself.Gone forever,The fitful, flickering shadows of a mortal memory.Spotless is my mental sky,Below, ahead, and high above.Eternity and I, one united ray.I, a tiny bubble of laughter,Have become the Sea of Mirth Itself.”
- “Love is the song of the soul, singing to God.”

"You are walking on the earth as in a dream. Our world is a dream within a dream; you must realize that to find God is the only goal, the only purpose, for which you are here. For Him alone you exist. Him you must find." – from the book The Divine Romance
