More quotes by George Harrison

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.

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
No matter how good you are, you still need grace to get out of the material world. You can be a yogi or a monk or a nun, but without God's grace you still can't make it.

I am part of the cycle, rebirth death, rebirth death, rebirth death.

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
When you're open to something it's like being a beacon, and you attract it. From the first time I heard the chanting Hare Krishna, it was like a door opened somewhere in my subconscious, maybe from some previous life.

It just annoyed me that people got so into the Beatles. Beatles, Beatles, Beatles. It's not that I don't like talking about them. I've never stopped talking about them. It's Beatles this, Beatles that, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles, Beatles. Then in the end, it's like Oh, sod off with the Beatles, you know?

If God is unlimited, then He can appear in any form, whichever way He likes to appear.

Consciousness and meditation are methods where you can actually obtain GOD perception.
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
Image
One of the main differences between silent meditation and chanting is that silent meditation is rather dependent on concentration, but when you chant, it's more of a direct connection with God.

I was so young when I was born.
George Harrison

People have to have the desire within themselves to find out who they are. Who am I and what am I doing here and where am I going? Those sort of basic questions. Even without picking up a book or anything. If they just ask themselves that sincerely, in the quiet of the night, the door will open.

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.

It's easier to criticize somebody else, than to see yourself.

The greatest thing anyone can give humanity is God consciousness.

Everyone should have themselves regularly overwhelmed by Nature

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.

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.

People always say I'm the Beatle who changed the most, but really that's what I see life is about... you have to change.
