Said one devotee, “Maharajji was love incarnate. No religion, only love.”
from Miracle of Love: Stories about Neem Karoli Baba, compiled by Ram Dass
See God in everyone. It is deception to teach by individual differences and karma.
I am here and I am in America. Whoever remembers me, I go to.
You get wisdom from suffering. You are alone with God when you are sick, in the cremation ground or hospital. You call on God when you suffer.
If you want to see God, kill desires. Desires are in the mind. When you have a desire for something, don’t act on it and it will go away. If you desire to drink this cup of tea, don’t, and the desire for it will fall away.
It doesn’t matter if you are married or not, it only matters how much you love God.
It’s better to see God in everything than to try to figure it out.
If you are free of attachment, you will lead a simple life in a simple environment.
Truth is the most difficult tapasya. Men will hate you for telling the truth. They will call you names. They may even kill you, but you must tell the truth. If you live in truth, God will always stand with you.
Money should be used to help others.
Meditation is good. One can attain a pure mind by one-pointedness and detachment. Meditate upon one point and you will know God.
Forgiveness is the greatest weapon, because a saint so armed is unperturbable… he can give up anger immediately.
Cleanse the mirror of your heart and you will see God.
Even if a person hurts you, give him love. The worst punishment is to throw someone out of your heart… You should love everyone as God, and love each other. If you cannot love each other, you cannot achieve your goal.
Love is the strongest medicine. It is more powerful than electricity.
Love all men as God, even if they hurt you or shame you. Be like Gandhi and Christ.
All women are mothers and sisters, and all men are fathers and brothers in God’s family.
The whole universe is your home. All are your family.
It is not necessary to meet your guru on the physical plane. The guru is not external.
Keep God in your heart like you keep money in a safe.
People are quick to take a chapatti but slow to take the name of God.
The eyes of a saint are always concentrated on the supreme Self; the minute he is aware of himself, sainthood is lost.
You must accept the teachings of Christ and follow them. Christ said to be like a little child—never think or speak anything that could harm anyone.
No one believes in Christ, but I do.
The best form to worship God is in every form.
The body passes away. Everything is impermanent. Except the love of God.
You can leave me. I won’t leave you. Once I catch hold of you, I don’t let go.
