If you have to get angry, get angry at bigger things, not the small usual mundane stuff. Get angry at corruption in the system and injustice happening around you. Everyone should speak out against corruption.

Ego is feeling uncomfortable in the presence of someone else. Self-confidence is, feeling at home. Being natural is antidote to ego, and being natural is so complementary to confidence. It goes with confidence and is inseparable from confidence.

The test of your peace is only when there are obstacles. Be thankful to obstacles.

Take  the  challenge. Whenever someone is nasty towards you, do something so nice that it takes him by surprise.

If anyone any time feels lonely, depressed, unhappy or sad, just remember that you are not alone.

Trust in yourself. Have faith in your choice of actions and the path you would be following. If you don’t trust yourself, how can you trust the Master?

Misunderstandings happen on this planet because of distance, because there is no closeness, no one ever ‘sits next to’ the other. In one house, people live on different planets. In a town, people live in different galaxies.
