Quote

Why live in the darkness all your life? Why, if you are unhappy, if you are having a miserable time, why not just look at it? Why are you in the darkness? Look for the light. The light is within.

George Harrison

Without looking out of my window I could know the ways of heaven
George Harrison
Image
I find the older one gets the harder it is to keep the weight off, even if one isn't eating very fattening foods. Once, I was able to put foods like those away, and they didn't show up on the bathroom scales the next morning. But that was when I was very physically active, travelling all over the world and burning up more calories.
George Harrison

When people come up to me expecting me to be just like what they thought a Beatle would be, they're disappointed. I never was a Beatle, except musically. I don't think any of us was. What is a Beatle anyway? I'm not a Beatle or an ex-Beatle or even the George Harrison. I'm just a man. Very ordinary.
George Harrison

That's the real beauty of chanting - you directly connect with God. I have no doubt that by saying Krishna over and over again, He can come and dance on the tongue. The main thing, though, is to keep in touch with God.
George Harrison
Image
The Beatles are now history, and it would be unhealthy to try to make my way as a former member. I must admit I occasionally listen to our records, but usually it's not deliberate. I'm more concerned with the present, with working out my own individual style and producing something new and worthwhile.
George Harrison

Some things take so long But how do I explain When not too many people Can see we're all the same And because of all their tears Your eyes can't hope to see The beauty that surrounds them Now, isn't it a pity
George Harrison
Image
Yesterday, today was tomorrow. And tomorrow, today will be yesterday.
George Harrison
Image
People have to have a desire within themselves to know who they are and the reason why they are in this body.
George Harrison
Image
I have suffered for this book now it's your turn.
George Harrison
Image
It's God's love manifest in this world through everything that's in this world, and all the people in the world.
George Harrison
Image
Krishna is God, so He's absolute: His name, His form, prasadam, it's all Him.
George Harrison
Image
We are not these bodies, just souls having a bodily experience.
George Harrison
Image
So it's the unwinding of your nervous system. The corresponding experience to what winds you up comes out in your dreams. To write a song then, even one like Don't Bother Me, helps to get rid of some subconscious burden. Writing a song is like going to confession.
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

Even those of us who are very very aware are still so unaware. Everything's relative so that, the more you know, the more you know you don't know anything.
George Harrison
Image
So it's really a process of actually having a realization of God, which all becomes clear with the expanded state of consciousness that develops when you chant.
George Harrison
Image
There's a bottomless heart hooked into all of you and it's wondering how much you care.
George Harrison

Love one another (His last words)
George Harrison
Image
It's a matter of turning your consciousness inward in order to then realize that God is in there, and then you can see him outside too. It's just a shift in attitude, really.
George Harrison

All things must pass.
