Religion

For Swami Ji the only religion is love. He does not see himself as a Hindu and believes that these names of religions only separate us from each other. Love without any boundary or rule of a religion! He discusses religions and their rules and nature in his...

Religion is a Cage
I yesterday mentioned shortly that one reason for criticizing Mother Teresa is that she believed in pain and suffering as the way to god. She actually promoted that poverty is a sign of closeness to god. You can imagine the consequences – something which you ... Read More

Words of Wisdom

  • Honesty

    Be honest, even if you know the other one won't be happy about your answer!

    Source
  • Relationship

    The main factors for a good relationship are that you are physically close and devoted without any ego. If this devotion is not there, they will be far from each other even if they are physically close, sleeping and living in the same room. Then they cannot understand each other and in these cases relationships sometimes break even after a very long time.

    Source
  • Respect

    The coming generation will not forgive and forget violence in their childhood. If you hit your children, they will not keep a loving relationship with you, so don’t even start it!

    Source
  • Food

    Make one meal a day a meeting point, a ritual for the whole family together.

    Source
  • Identity

    Do not pretend to be older or younger than you are. Playing a role looks artificial. You appear more serious and real if you just are who you are.

    Source
  • Expectations

    Any kind of disappointment comes from expectations.

    Source
  • Feelings

    Words are not the only way to communicate. A look in someone’s eyes can express feelings in a much deeper way.

    Source
  • Sex

    Sex is not only physical. It is more about feelings than about the physical aspect. With money you can hire a body but not feelings and surely not love.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Be careful when a guru suggests to charge your mobile phone in front of his picture!

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion has created social structure - and now we have the ‘untouchable’ caste!

    Source
  • Pets

    Making pets of animals takes away their natural freedom.

    Source
  • Ego

    Both, good and bad Karma binds you. Offer whatever you do. In this way you will be safe of the disappointment that comes with a bad result and safe of the ego of having achieved a good result.

    Source
  • Scriptures

    The problem in a discussion with religious people is that they do not only think their belief is the best but quote their scriptures as proof in their arguments and then get confused and can't believe it when somebody doesn't accept their quotations as the truth.

    Source
  • Prayers

    Many people think of God as a very distant, unreachable power. For them God is not close and their prayers are very formal. A prayer is something special and can be in many forms, not only certain words. But you need closeness, your heart should be in your prayer.

    Source
  • Scriptures

    Scriptures were written by normal men. It was their experience but your experience can be very different. With time everything changes. If your experience is different than from what the Bible or the Gita tells you, why don’t you believe in yourself? Why don’t you trust your experience?

    Source
  • Identity

    People often have different faces, for work, for home, for friends and so on. That makes it difficult for you and others to understand you. Just be who you are!

    Source
  • Belief

    Whatever your belief is, give your child as much freedom as possible to decide on his own. If you force a child into one belief, you don’t give its mind the possibility to develop in its own way.

    Source
  • Responsibility

    Western culture is not responsible for sex, alcohol and gambling problems in India!

    Source
  • Ego

    There are people who are very impressed when you make your talk complicated and others who like that. They like it complicated because it satisfies their ego to understand it.

    Source
  • Emotions

    Distance from the ex partner is necessary to keep away the feelings of jealousy!
