More quotes by George Harrison
Each individual has to burn out his own karma and escape from the chains of maya (illusion), reincarnation, and all that.
George Harrison
I believe what it says in the scriptures and in the Bhagavad Gita: 'Never was there a time when you did not exist, and there never will be a time when you cease to exist.'
George Harrison
I'd rather be one of the devotees of God than one of the straight, so-called sane or normal people who just don't understand that man is a spiritual being, that he has a soul.
George Harrison
Been stuck in airports, terrorized sent to meetings, hypnotized overexposed, commercialized. Handle me with care.
George Harrison
Throughout much of our lives, our association with the temporary has risen. This transitory body, a sack of bones and flesh, is considered erroneously as our true body and we have accepted this temporary condition as conclusive.
George Harrison
If you drop out you put yourself further away from the goal of life than if you were to keep working.
George Harrison
What do you think of the criticism that you're not very good?
George Harrison
The Christianity that had come in my life as a child was all this idea that you're never going to see God. It's like hypocrisy, in a way.
George Harrison
Many people fear the words Lord and God.
George Harrison
In the end, this world will go under because of the stupidity of people.
George Harrison
I had no ambition when I was a kid other than to play guitar and get in a rock 'n' roll band. I don't really like to be the guy in the white suit at the front. Like in the Beatles, I was the one who kept quiet at the back and let the other egos be at the front.
George Harrison
I think the main thing that we have to do is try and train ourselves to remember from moment to moment that God is living within us and within everybody else, and just trying to remember to see that.
George Harrison
I want the Pope to have the Christ consciousness. I don't want to just talk about Christ.
George Harrison
Man can become purified, and with divine vision he can see God. You get pure by chanting, then you see Him.
George Harrison
Nobody can become a drug addict if they're hip. Because it's obvious that if you're hip then you've got to make it. The buzz of all buzzes which is the thing that is God - you've got to be straight to get it.
George Harrison
We're as much influenced by everybody else as they are by us, if they are. It's just all a part of the big thing.
George Harrison
Indian music is brilliant and for me, anyway, (this is only personal) it's got everything in it. I still like electronics and all sorts of music if it's good but Indian music is just... an untouchable you can't say what it is, because it just is.
George Harrison
There's the whole significance of Krishna as the flute player who awakens our consciousness. It doesn't necessarily have to be a flute because for me it was a sitar or a guitar or even Elvis Presley doing Heartbreak Hotel. It was like Krishna's flute calling me somewhere. It's just really simple when we can remember.
George Harrison
The amount of grace I would expect from God should be equal to the amount of grace I can gather or earn. I get out what I put in.
George Harrison
Yesterday, today was tomorrow. And tomorrow, today will be yesterday.
George Harrison
