“Sometimes people tell me, “Our times are so terrible, so crazy, so hard… How can you successfully steer yourself and practice in this difficult age?”

I usually answer, “Bless the Kali Yuga! Bless it with you all! Every moment is practice! Every step is practice! Every experience is practice! Every encounter is practice! Every breath is practice! Everything throbs with the power of a thousand suns and shines with the light of millions of pure diamonds! Everything is unveiled! Everything is revealed! Everything is transparent! No time has been so propitious! It is enough to remain aware, for the fruits of practice to appear spontaneously.

Do not hold anything in your hands! Do not hold onto anything in your mind! Do not hold onto anything in your heart! Naked, just let the breeze blow! Naked, just dance like a blade of grass moved by this luminous wind!”
