Being yourself and being true to yourself in life is itself punya, goodness. Hatred is sinful. Love is punya.
Our happiness is not dependent on outer circumstances but on our own self, own state of mind.
God is the embodiment of joy; and as a part of Him, we are also naturally beings of happiness.
Reasonable space and distance are necessary in every relationship.
Each should be given the right to choose his or her own path.
Let the consciousness flow wherever it naturally does.
Speaking without thinking is a defeat of speech.
