Have you met the man who had a huge fortune

and always felt poor?

Have you met the man who could recite all the names of God

and never felt God in his heart?

Have you met the man who has read all the books on love

and never allowed love in his life?

Have you met the man who gave wonderful lectures on world peace

and never felt his peace within?

Have you met the man who fed the hungry

and never felt and fed his own hunger?

What is value of a great book

if it cannot be internalized?

Path of heart is different from that of mind.

Mind pushes you to think, verbalize and do:

a human doing.

Heart pushes you to feel and be:

a human being.

Take off the mask!

Use the knowledge of your heart.

It never lies to you.

Feel, be alive and conscious

through your heart’s path.
