“When I speak of tantric yoga, I'm speaking of a type of yoga that is best practiced by persons who live in society. It's a yoga for the last yuga.”
“Tantra is not sexual yoga. When the word tantra is used in the West, very often people immediately associate it with some kind of sexual yoga in which you use sex as a vehicle for enlightenment.”
“Tantra has to do with the reconciliation of opposites. All the yogas recommend that you avoid certain experiences. In tantra there is no avoidance.”
“Enlightenment is cumulative. You become a little more enlightened each day as you practice yoga and Buddhism.”
“On the path of love we don't feel we necessarily have control. In the yoga of love we feel it's only God who does everything. We can't breathe one breath without God.”
“What is there? No one can say -because there is no one there to say.”
“We learn that those around us are an extension of ourselves, both animate and inanimate. All things have a life and form. We learn to love them all.”
“While we all have a great capacity to love, very few of us will love the proper way.”
“There has never been anything but the Self. There is no world, there is no time, there is no place, there is no condition. There is nothing and there can be nothing else.”
“"Nothing is as it seems" - This is an illusion.”
“If we examine the essence of existence, we'll find that the essence is love. There really is nothing that isn't love.”
“Ask youself: "Am I loving as deeply as I am capable of loving?"”
“Then we see that the same God is within ourselves.”
