To purify the intellect, listen to knowledge. What is knowledge? It is the awareness that everything is temporary and I am the witness to everything that is happening.
See not always only pleasant things happen, unpleasant things do happen in life. It's a part of the whole thing. Isn't it? What you can do here - you can reduce all the unpleasant things as much as possible. How? By spreading love, by spreading knowledge by educating.

Be in knowledge. Listen to knowledge and do your practices (sadhana) every day. Then you cannot get into depression. Join a team, do seva. When you have nothing to do, you think about yourself and get depressed.
Be busy in spreading knowledge. Day and night think of how you can reach out to people, and do some good work in life. Or write articles, write music; songs. When you are so busy then you will find that obsessions do not bother you.
This Diwali, light the lamp of knowledge within you, be happy, content and spread this happiness to many others around you. Drop all the problems and negativity of the past and put it aside. Be in harmony with everyone else, let there be sweetness and gentility in your behaviour towards everyone.
Anything that nurtures the spirit is spirituality. Proper rest, some knowledge, an expanding your vision, all this is part of spirituality. And all of this is needed for a civilized happy life.
Knowledge about the universe makes you fall in love, or I would rather say, rise in love with the creative force or power of the universe.
Some of us are more bent towards knowledge, some of us are more towards love, and some of us are more towards alertness. But meditation combines all three: love, knowledge and awareness. And if we catch hold of any one of it and master it, then the other two also come along.
If you have digested the knowledge of 'who you are and what this universe is all about', then it is impossible to not be a loving person.
In your city, in your town, wherever you are, spread happiness. Start happiness centers and let people come there, sit and breathe, and learn some knowledge, and become happy.
The keenness of observation indicates the level of our consciousness. Yoga expands and uplifts the consciousness, and when the consciousness is uplifted then the knowledge gets very clear and well-founded.
There are different colors associated with our feelings and emotions: anger with red, jealousy with green, vibrancy and happiness with yellow, love with pink, vastness with blue, peace with white, sacrifice with saffron, and knowledge with violet. Each person is a fountain of colors which keep changing.
The sign of an intelligent person is that he spends his time in learning and mastering the arts, literature, and music, and in discussing knowledge.
It is time for us to encourage our children to learn music and spend time in doing service to the society, and to develop a scientific temper while also pursuing spiritual and dharmic knowledge.
Knowledge is considered to be like soap. There is nothing more purifying than knowledge. But if you hold on to knowledge, it will turn into ignorance and arrogance. That is why it is said to learn and forget.
