“When you get attached to the whole Existence, you are in yoga.” – Sadhguru
“If you look at all the activity that you are doing in your life; all the activity that every human being is pursuing in his life, actually everything is being done in pursuit of happiness.” – Sadhguru
“Affluence has not brought misery. The money did not stay in your pocket; it got into your head. Only then misery came to you. Having lots of money in your pocket is good. But if it enters your head, it becomes misery, because that is not its place.” – Sadhguru
“It is my wish and my blessing that you will manage your businesses in a much better way than the previous generations of people have done.” – Sadhguru
“Spiritual progress is possible because the mind, through understanding, is able to recontextualize the contents of the ego and discern its very mechanism. Once this occurs, one is no longer blindly ‘at the mercy’ of the ego.” – David Hawkins
“If you make yourself into a conscious leader, it is better because you will function sensibly. If you are just a charismatic leader, the charisma can be very intoxicating, both for you and others. And you can lead them to a disaster.” – Sadhguru
“Lovingness is a way of relating to the world. It is a generosity of attitude that expresses itself in seemingly small but powerful ways. It is a wish to bring happiness to others, to brighten their day and lighten their load. To merely be friendly and complimentary to everyone one meets in the course of a day is revealing.” – David Hawkins
“If you get too enamored with your own creation, you will miss the Creator’s creation.” – Sadhguru
“The possible downside of hearing advanced information early is the intellects presumption of the prideful I know that. It is better to hold the information as I have heard that. To truly ‘know’ is to ‘be,’ at which point one does not know; instead, one is.” – David Hawkins
“When you are constantly in pursuit of security, you are in pursuit of death.” – Sadhguru
“As Freud discovered, out of guilt the animal nature of man becomes repressed and then projected onto others or a deity that purportedly has the same character defects as man.” – David Hawkins

“The levels below calibration level 200 (the critical level of integrity) tend to be self-propagating because of the seductive emotional pleasure of the ego’s animal-instinct payoff.” – David Hawkins
“Because of dualistic perception, the mind could no longer discern the abstract symbol from reality. The road to error was open and inviting, and opinion held sway, as the mind had no innate mechanism to discern truth from falsehood.” – David Hawkins
“The witness/observer is a contemplative attitude of poise. Phenomena appear and disappear. One must constantly surrender the desire to experience the phenomena or the desire to “juice” the experience of the experiencing itself.” – David Hawkins
“The ego is dissolved not by denunciation or self-hatred, which are expressions of the ego, but by benign and nonmoralistic acceptance and compassion that arises out of understanding its intrinsic nature and origin.” – David Hawkins
“With the style of detached observation, the unfolding of life reveals itself to be the consequence of the spontaneous emergence of actuality as a manifestation of potentiality when conditions are favorable.” – David Hawkins
“Do you see that when you’re happy you have endless energy? Even if you don’t eat, if you don’t sleep, it doesn’t matter: you can go on and on. Have you noticed this? So just a little happiness is liberating you from your normal limitations of energy and capability.” – Sadhguru
“Our perception of events happening in time is analogous to a traveler watching the landscape unfold before him. But to say that the landscape unfolds before the traveler is merely a figure of speech—nothing is actually unfolding; nothing is actually becoming manifest. There’s only the progression of awareness.” – David Hawkins
“When you get up in the morning, the first thing you should do is smile. At whom? No one. Because just the fact that you woke up is not a small thing.” – Sadhguru
