All revolutions are spiritual at the source. All my activities have the sole purpose of achieving a union of hearts.
From Vinoba Bhave
Human life is full of the play of samskaras - tendencies developed by repeated actions.
Innumerable actions are going on through us all the time. If we started counting them, we should never come to an end.
The natural movement of one's soul is upwards. But just as any object is dragged down when a heavy weight is tied to it, the burden of the body drags down the soul.
If we could only snap the fetters of the body that bind the feet of the soul, we shall experience a great joy. Then we shall not be miserable because of the body's sufferings. We shall become free.
Do not allow yourself to imagine that revolutionary thinking can be propagated by governmental power.
It is a curious phenomena that God has made the hearts of the poor, rich and those of the rich, poor.
In nonviolence you must go full steam ahead, if you want the good to come speedily you must go about it with vigor.
We cannot fight new wars with old weapons.
Though the names karma yoga and sannyasa are different, the truth at the heart of both is the same.
