Famous Shunya Quotes

“You have been taught things only from human perspective. To be holy, you must have holistic perspective. You must see things from other perspectives. For example: A Mango tree does business with human beings. It covers its seeds with sweet pulp and says, “My seeds can’t grow under my shade. So please take my seeds away from me. As your service fee, you can have the pulp.”

“Conversations are like movies. There has to be a villain to make them interesting. Often it’s difficult to find a safe, distant and common villain. Our desire to have a conversation is so strong that we end up making someone close to us a villain. “Mom, your favourite child did this.” “Dear husband, your mother did this.” “Son, your wife did this.” These are just attempts of a human mind to do an interesting conversation but they end up in a full fledged drama at home.”

“If you were transported 500 years back in time and told them about mobile phones, they would call you mad and kill you. Even if you are an engineer, you wouldn’t be able to prove to them that mobile phones are real. They only understand clay and fire. Today when people say they can see things that you can’t see, you call them mentally ill. Don’t disregard experiences of others no matter how different they are from yours. Space-Time is infinite. Even things you can’t imagine exist inside it.”
