separate, unique, and superior. Some say they are teaching the true Kundalini yoga. Then what are we teaching?
I choose to teach you all things so that you don't become prejudiced. After that you can follow one system for practice. For knowledge, you must understand all systems."
On the Ideal Community:
"In today's world man is experimenting with various social and political systems. One system grants equality (material) but takes away freedom. Another grants freedom but takes away equality. The Arihanta system grants both freedom and equality in the material sense and in the highest spiritual sense. The followers of the Arihantas work selflessly without profit in mind. They consider themselves only as trustees of wealth, to protect and distribute it to aid others in a true sense of brotherhood. My dream is to see our ashram community develop into such a society of non violence and non attachment, always keeping in mind our duty towards mankind."
On Subtle Awareness:
Can you see the fragrance of a rose? No, it is too subtle for the eyes to see. It is the same with the subtle bodies. You must open your inner senses. The yogi is master of his subtle bodies."
"
Know Thyself:
"When asked what yoga is, Lord Mahavir answered, "performing only one thing at a time." This way all your actions become yoga.
Mind, body, and breath should function together. Focus your mind and do one work at a time. This is meditation. Know thyself; if you do not know yourself then how can you know God? Know your body first. Without the knowledge of body, we can not do anything. Read your body. This is our greatest book of knowledge. Go inside your body. Use breath and sound as a vehicle.
