Reading and Writing
Of all that is written, I love only what a person has written with his blood.  Write with blood, and you will find that blood is spirit.It is no easy task to understand unfamiliar blood; I hate the reading idlers.He who knows the reader, does nothing more for the reader.  Another  century of readers--and spirit itself will stink.Every one being all... more...

Agreeable Distance
A number of porcupines huddled together for warmth on a cold day in winter; but, as they began to prick one another with their quills, they were obliged to disperse. However the cold drove them together again, when just the same thing happened. At last, after many turns of huddling and dispersing, they discovered that they would be best off by rema... more...

Tat Twam Asi :Explanation
This Mahavakya “Tat twam Asi”, the hindi meaning of this sentence would be “ye tum ho”. When spoken while pointing to other living creature, this sentence will hold no truth and would become absurd in the world of appearance as no two people are same, physically or morally. To understand this, first we have to understand the duality of Subject and ... more...

Impression on conscience
It is only because the will is above and beyond time that the stings of conscience are ineradicable, and do not, like other pains, gradually wear away. No! an evil deed weighs on the conscience years afterwards as heavily as if it had been freshly committed. more...

My sweet beloved child, don't misconceive My meaning, who dare say God's name?Who dare to claimThat he believes in God?And who's heart is so deadThat he ever boldly said:No, I don't believe.Embracing all thingsHolding all things in being,Does He not hold and keepYou, me, even himself?Is not the heaven's great vault up there on highAnd here below, d... more...

Blessings of Life : Man in Himself
Everything confirms the fact that the subjective element in life is incomparably more important for our happiness and pleasure than the objective, from such sayings as “Hunger is the best sauce”, and “Youth and Age cannot live together”, up to the life of the Genius and the Saint. Health outweighs all other blessings so much that one may really say... more...

Nature
If you lose touch with nature you lose touch with humanity. If there"s no relationship with nature then you become a killer; then you kill baby seals, whales, dolphins, and man, either for gain, for "sport", for food, or for knowledge.

Rang de Basanti
  I have always felt that cimena and cricket are the lifeline of India. And in fact both of them have a tremendous capacity to influence people's lives in one way or the other.

Confessions - II
Raju … is an old friend. If I can recall it right - I remember him from my days in a Nursery School called Sishu Aakash somewhere in South Calcutta. Hence, he was the person there whom I had known for the maximum numbers of years now.
