Benediction doesn’t come to you because you lead a systematised life or follow a routine or morality. It comes only when your heart is really open.

If you are seeking the highest, you will not find it; it must come to you, if you are lucky – and luck is the open window of your heart.

Not to hurt and not to be hurt, that is the innocence of the heart.

You were innocent, without striving and without thought. Everything about you was new; you had never seen them before. Your eyes were washed clean, and you had not a spot in your heart.

Truth is the unknown; it cannot be known; if it is known, it is not truth.

His mind would think of how it would be quiet tomorrow. But tomorrow never came.

The mind is always afraid of coming to an end.

Opinions have no value, though the whole world is run on them. Opinions are limited.

Simplicity of heart is far more important and significant than simplicity of possessions.

Without meditation, the heart becomes a desert, a wasteland.

Most people are unhappy because there is no love in their hearts. Love will arise in your heart when you have no barrier between yourself and another.

Meditation is the understanding of the heart. When the heart cleanses the mind of all its tricks and absurd devices, its conceits and stratagems, meditation flows as clearly as the fresh waters of a river.

It is very important to smile, to be happy, because without a song in one’s heart, life becomes very dull.

The man who is empty of heart writes a great deal about love; the man who is unhappy composes music on love and beauty. —Krishnamurti

To fill your heart with the things of the mind is to leave no room for love.

Progress is such a comforting word, so reassuring, a word with which we hypnotise ourselves.

What you seek you will find, but it will not be truth.

Watch the process of your own thinking. How cunning and deceptive it is! —Krishnamurti

Love is a strange thing; as long as thought is woven through it, it is not love.

The unknown cannot be experienced. You may think or speculate about the unknown, or be afraid of it, but thought cannot comprehend it.
