• I was in yoga the other day. I was in full lotus position. My chakras were all aligned.

• Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.' Say not, ' I have found the path of the soul.' Say rather, 'I have met the soul walking upon my path.' For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.

• Nay, do not grieve tho' life be full of sadness,
  Dawn will not veil her spleandor for your grief,
  Nor spring deny their bright, appointed beauty
  To lotus blossom and ashoka leaf.
  
  Nay, do not pine, tho' life be dark with trouble,
  Time will not pause or tarry on his way;
  To-day that seems so long, so strange, so bitter,
  Will soon be some forgotten yesterday.
  
  Nay, do not weep; new hopes, new dreams, new faces,
  The unspent joy of all the unborn years,
  Will prove your heart a traitor to its sorrow,
  And make your eyes unfaithful to their tears.

• The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.

• I want you to learn the lesson of the lotus. This flower springs forth from muddy waters. It raises its delicate petals to the sun and perfumes the world while, at the same time, its roots cling to the elemental muck, the very essence of the mortal experience. Without that soil, the flower would wither and die.

  116 Copy quote

• Our first duty is to satisfy the spiritual master, who can arrange for the Lord's mercy. A common man must first begin to serve the spiritual master or the devotee. Then, through the mercy of the devotee, the Lord will be satisfied. Unless one receives the dust of a devotee's lotus feet on one's head, there is no possibility of advancement. Unless one approaches a pure devotee, he cannot understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

  A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

• There is a beautiful expression of this in the Chandogya Upanishad: 'There is this City of Brahman, (that is the body), and in this city there is a shrine, and in that shrine there is a small lotus, and in that lotus there is a small space, (akasa). Now what exists within that small space, that is to be sought, that is to be understood.' This is the great discovery of the Upanishads, this inner shrine, this guha, or cave of the heart, where the inner meaning of life, of all human existence, is to be found.
