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.

More quotes by George Harrison
It would be great if everyone chanted Hare Krishna. Everybody would benefit by doing it.
George Harrison
Everybody is looking for Krishna. Some don't realize that they are, but they are.
George Harrison
The response that comes from chanting is in the form of bliss, or spiritual happiness, which is a much higher taste than any happiness found here in the material world. That's why I say that the more you do it, the more you don't want to stop, because it feels so nice and peaceful.
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 Lord is in everything that's in creation. So, when you look at a tree, it's really a reflection of God. You see it in other people - that's him too, you know?
George Harrison
It doesn't matter whether you're the king of a country or... a fabulous Beatle it's what's inside that counts.
George Harrison
I'm pessimistic about the future of the planet. These big guys don't realize for everything they do, there's a reaction. You have to pay. That's karma.
George Harrison
I don't know how you were diverted You were perverted too. I don't know how you were inverted No one alerted you.
George Harrison
The Guru and Disciple relationship is where the person has a 100% belief in the Guru and that way you put your trust in the Guru, that he's going to get you out of this mess. If you are a Christian, then Christ is your Guru, and they're all disciples of Christ.
George Harrison
I'm not really hip to too much of the Zen or the Buddhist point of view, but you see I don't have to be because I just know that they're all the same, it's all the same, it's just whichever one you want to take and it happens that I'm taking the Hindu one.
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
Most of the world is fooling about, especially the people who think they control the world and the community. The presidents, the politicians, the military, etc., are all jerking about, acting as if they are Lord over their own domains. That's basically Problem One on the planet.
George Harrison
I was so young when I was born.
George Harrison
Without going out of my door, I can know all things on earth. Without looking out of my window I could know the ways of heaven. The farther one travels, The less one knows, the less one really knows.
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
It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.
George Harrison
All I got to be is be happy.
George Harrison
I'm grateful to myself and those closest to me me for having given me that non-material base that means I'm a happy man, one who doesn't have to compete or engineer projects he doesn't have his heart in.
George Harrison
None of us are God - just His servants.
George Harrison
When somebody does something which everybody really wants to do, then it makes everyone else try a little bit harder and strive for something better, and it's good.
George Harrison
