It's inexplicable why somebody can lose a leg and it doesn't effect them at all emotionally and another person can lose a foot and be destroyed for the rest of their lives.

More quotes by Krishna Das
I chant to save my heart. Every time I sit down, that's what I'm doing.
Krishna Das
There is love in this world, and it lives within us as who we really are, not who we think we are.
Krishna Das
Whenever I'm really stuck, when I really need to go 'in there,' I sing the Chalisa and that connects me to Maharajji, to Hanuman, to that powerful presence that's deeper than any of that stuff. And, by touching that, I'm able to overcome whatever I'm stuck in...at least for 10 minutes.
Krishna Das
On the Path, it’s impossible to know how you are doing because it’s the judger who is disappearing.
Krishna Das
Bhakti yoga isn't something you join, it's love. It means falling in love.
Krishna Das
Chanting is a way of getting in touch with yourself. It's an opening of the heart and letting go of the mind and thoughts. It deepens the channel of grace, and it's a way of being present in the moment.
Krishna Das
Until you are fully enlightened, you can never know what another person's reality is like for them.
Krishna Das
The heart is like a mirror. When we dust it off, we are able to see ourselves. The dust is all our stuff - guilt, anger - this stuff is reflected back to us. Practice removes the dust from the mirror of our hearts.
Krishna Das
I didn't know what I was looking for, but I knew whatever it was that I was looking for was real.
Krishna Das
Compassion is a college education. It's a doctorate.
Krishna Das
When we start to talk about gurus, we're talking about beings who actually know what this is all about. They know who we were, where we came from, and where we're going. They are not imprisoned in a selfish or self-centered view of the universe.
Krishna Das
We are so programmed to feel that our emotions are the most important thing in the Universe...We write, produce and act in the story of me. And then we write reviews - and read them and get more depressed. All we can do is let go, and that comes from training. And then we spend less and less time in the darker spaces.
Krishna Das
There is an eighth color that we don't have the sense apparatus to see or experience.
Krishna Das
You can’t think yourself out of a box that’s made of your thoughts.
Krishna Das
I'm reconnecting, I'm deepening, I'm opening, I'm releasing negativity and negative thoughts and all the limitations I carry around with me - again and again and again and again and again and again. And again! And that's the only thing that keeps me alive.
Krishna Das
Just the slightest turn toward the inside is a very big thing.
Krishna Das
When you meet your guru or a being who knows, who is no longer loving, but has become love, a being who is sitting in truth, and in compassion and kindness for all beings - you know. When I met my guru, I knew. And it was before I met him physically, actually.
Krishna Das
The Presence is our own presence. We are not getting anything from the outside. We already have all we need inside.
Krishna Das
Grace removes obstacles that we don’t even know are there. Grace is what arranges our lives so we are forced to look within.
Krishna Das
The ultimate act of power is surrender.
Krishna Das
