More quotes by Krishna Das
You can’t think yourself out of a box that’s made of your thoughts.
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
The repetition of the holy names reveals a presence hidden within the heart. Something begins to happen that's very disturbing - we get happy.
Krishna Das
One of your biggest lessons so far in life has been to learn to forgive myself over and over again and not to be so harsh with myself.
Krishna Das
There is an eighth color that we don't have the sense apparatus to see or experience.
Krishna Das
Let's just chant and be good people, alright?
Krishna Das
The heart in us is deeper than any emotion or psychological issue.
Krishna Das
Hanuman not only gives liberation, he also fulfills our beneficial desires.
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
The presence of real love in the world inspires me.
Krishna Das
Letting go does not mean pushing away or negating thoughts or feelings that come to us - but instead being with the feeling. We start to feel that we are no longer victims of the stuff that happens to us. There is something we can do about it... if we just take a look at it.
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
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
The ultimate act of power is surrender.
Krishna Das
We have to learn to love people even if they are not giving you what you want... and then not take it personally. If you feel hurt, you have to recognize that they are not hurting you because you are you, but because they are them. You have to try not to be so hard on yourself.
Krishna Das
As we do practice something unexpected starts to happen-we get happy!
Krishna Das
I knew that if I did not start chanting with people, that I would never be able to clean out the dark corners of my own heart. I knew it with every cell in my body and mind.
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
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.
Krishna Das
Chanting just hits you and you want to be a part of it. That’s the point of this whole thing. That’s what cuts through all the ‘stuff’. You get lit up. You don’t have to know what it means.
