When we say Tamil, we are not talking of a language but an entire civilisation.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
I love games, and I'll play any. Games are a way of training ourselves to be heavily involved without being serious.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
There are certain rivers which can be linked, which will be beneficial especially for flood mitigation... It will be very useful process, but all rivers in India are not fit to be linked.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
It's very important when you are young you don't take sides; you look at everything fresh and see, what is the best thing we can do? For ourselves, for the society in which we live, the country in which we live, the world in which we live, what's the best thing we can do?
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Spiritual process means approaching your well-being in a scientific manner as a technology for well-being.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
If a man aspires for a political career, he can start at 18 and go on and on. This is not true about women, who fall back when marriage and children happen, which are equally important. That is not gender bias.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Fearmongering has always happened, which, through technology, is being spread faster.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
We think the government is running the country, but it is just a policymaker. Unknowingly, people are inviting the government to run their lives. The only business of the government is to come up with the right policies.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Our life is a combination of a certain amount of energy and a certain amount of time.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
When we say we have patterns, there is a cyclical movement to everything. Our psychological and emotional processes also have become cyclical largely because of a very strong attachment and involvement with physical process, and physical process has to be cyclical; only then we exist. Without out cyclical movement there'll be no physical existence.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
In this country, nobody should be talking about unemployment, as there is so much to be done in India.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
To be spiritual means you have cosmic ambitions. You want to know not just the whole creation but the Creator and the source of creation as well. To be material means you have petty ambitions of owning a house - or 10 houses - or a whole apartment building.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Anybody can play decent golf like me, but people trip on their own minds. They need to create a little distance between what they think and what they do.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
India's rivers are undergoing a drastic change. Our perennial rivers are becoming seasonal. Many of the smaller rivers have already vanished.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
When the entire population of the world attains enlightenment, I'll retire and play golf every day.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Peace is a very poor aspiration. Unfortunately, even so-call spiritual leaders are going about saying that the ultimate goal of life is to find peace. Peace is a fundamental requirement. Why are you making it as the last thing in your life? It must be the first thing that happens to you.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Since I was fifteen years of age, I have been wanting to go to the football World Cup.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
It is not predictions but plans that make the future. If you want predictions, it is because you do not have the ability to make a plan and fulfill it.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
We have to grow in such a way that our growth is not at the cost of something else.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Generally, I don't need any music to dance. For me, dance is not because of the music. It is simply because I've found the rhythm of life.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
My engagement with mountains, rivers, and forests has been right from my childhood. I have lived in the jungles by myself; I have floated down rivers. So, I didn't experience these rivers, mountains, forests as some mythological figures but as thriving, living entities.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Most of the depressions are self-created. A few people are pathologically ill: they cannot help it. It just comes from within because of genetic and other factors. But almost everybody else can be driven to madness, because the line between sanity and insanity is quite thin.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
There is no such thing as waste. It is just a question of whether we know how to use something or not.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
What was earth, we made into filth. We must at least be able to transform it back to earth.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Work has become like prison because of the way we treat it. If you are trapped with people who you do not care for, it feels like a concentration camp.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
I speak passionately. I drive passionately. If I hit a ball, I will do it passionately, too. Because I don't understand how you go through life without involvement. Whatever I am doing in my life, whether big or small, I am 100 per cent involved.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
'Belief' means something that you do not know. You want to assume and bring a certainty to something that you do not know. That means you are concretising your ignorance. There is no need to believe anything.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
I don't have to go to a mountain to meditate. I'm meditative in every moment of my life.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Vijji was not an accomplished yogi. She did what she did with just the sheer intensity of her emotions.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
If you ask across the section of farmers in the country how many of them want their children to go into farming, believe me, it is less than 10 per cent. Nobody wants their children to go into farming.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
To make any endeavor truly successful, integrity, inspiration, and insight are integral.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Yoga is not a practice - the word 'yoga' means union. It does not mean standing on your head, twisting your body, or holding your breath. Yoga means to know the union of life. When you experience everything as a part of yourself, you are in yoga.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
If you don't have the necessary inner balance, leadership can demolish you. Today, if you are a CEO by the time you are 35, you must have ulcers. By 45, you must have diabetes. By 55, you must have had a bypass. People say they have had three bypasses, as if it is a qualification.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Essentially, all life on the planet is coming from the earth. Whether it is a human being or an earthworm, it is the same soil.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
For most human beings, if what they want happens, it is a success. If what they could not have imagined happens, it is luck. If what nobody could foresee happens, it is a miraculous existence.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
The most fundamental strength of India is that we are a land of seekers. Seekers of truth and liberation. Not a land of believers. We are a godless nation.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
The purpose of life is to explore one's own life to its fullest, to explore all dimensions.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
Insight essentially means being able to see things other people are not able to see. This is the hallmark of leadership.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
The reason for fasting is to understand the relationship between what's you and what's the accumulative body.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
You can learn to prevent a storm, or you can learn to ride the storm. If you learn to ride the storm, the storm is not a problem anymore.
Quote by -Jaggi Vasudev
My vision for the country is to urbanise rural areas. What is available in the cities must be available in the villages.
