كل صاحب مصلحة يريد منك أن تكون متوسطا- متوسط الذكاء والفهم والقدرة؛ فالشخص المتوسط مثله كمثل شجرة يأتي البشر إليها في كل وقت، ويقتطعوا من أغصانها وثمارها وأوراقها النضرة ذا فهي لا تنمو أبدا فالشخص المتوسط لا تؤتى ثماره أبدا ولا يزهر ولا يتضوع بالأريج؛ فهو يتضاءل ليكون كالعشب ... والتوسط لكي يستمر لا بد أن يكون حالة عامة فالتوسط شيء أجنبي فرض على العقل قسرا إنها حالة غير عادية ، استثنائية ، متميزة عن كينونتنا الحقة .

المطلوب حركة تأمل كبيرة تشمل الجميع . يذهب المكتئبون الغربيون إلى محللين نفسانيين ,
معالجين وكل أنواع المشعوذين , الذين هم بدورهم أكثر كآبة من مرضاهم – لأنهم يستمعون طيلة الوقت إلى شكايات المكتئبين , اليائسين ,فاقدي معنى الحياة , وعندما يرون هذا الكم من الموهوبين المكتئبين , يبدؤون هم بدورهم يخسرون روحهم تدريجيا , يعجزون عن تقديم المساعدة , يصبحون بحاجه لمن يساعدهم.

There is a very delicate line between pornography and beauty. A naked woman is not necessarily pornographic; a naked man is not necessarily pornographic. A beautiful man, a beautiful woman, naked, can be examples of beauty, of health, of proportion. They are the most glorious products of nature. If a deer can be naked and beautiful — and nobody thinks the deer is pornographic — then why should it be that a naked man or woman cannot be just seen as beautiful?

Dream of the impossible: dream of surpassing yourself, dream of nirvana, dream of moksha, dream of the kingdom of God. Only then will you start working and moving towards it, and only then with that dream, will your feet have the quality of dance.

In my view, he alone wins who does not desire to win, and he who wants to win loses.If someone is desiring and striving to win in life, it means that deep down he is lacking something, that he is suffering from an inferiority complex. Deep down, such a person is aware of the inferiority he is trying to cover through winning. And if, on the other hand, someone is not out to win it means he is already established in his eminence, there is not even a shade of inferiority in him to disprove by resorting to winning.

If the left hemisphere of the brain goes on dominating you, you will live a successful life — so successful that by the time you are forty you will have ulcers; by the time you are forty-five, you will have had at least one or two heart attacks. By the time you are fifty you will be almost dead — but successfully dead! You may become a great scientist, but you will never become a great being. You may accumulate enough wealth, but you will lose all that is of worth. You may conquer the whole world like an Alexander, but your own inner territory will remain unconquered.
