“Interfaith dialogue doesn't mean, 'come, let me tell you something about my faith.' Interfaith dialogue means, 'come, tell me something about your faith - I want to learn - I want to grow'.”

“I hope that you can finish reading this book with the feeling of having a little more understanding about yourself or someone else in your life. I hope that you have more compassion for yourself, and that you allow yourself to make mistakes. Remember: Mistakes are how you grow. And as you make a mess of them, like I have, you’ll realize, like I have, that many things you thought were mistakes weren’t mistakes at all. And you’ll be free from any chains, any judgments, any misunderstandings that people may have placed on you or that you’ve placed on yourself. Your life is in your hands. That’s what I’ve learned. I’m no longer trapping myself in a very small cage. I feel free.”

“So far, heritage has only caused a mess. You know why? Because it is never about just heritage - all talk of heritage inadvertently leads us to the savage dilemma of "our heritage versus their heritage". And such dilemma might have been acceptable in a savage society, but it is totally and utterly out of place in a civilized world. So, either the very construct of heritage evolves, or becomes an impediment to the expansion, hence the welfare, of the world as well as the self. That is why I say - just because you are born and raised in a particular culture, it doesn't mean, you are supposed to stay chained to that culture all your life, with blinkers on your eyes, that keep you ignorant of the beauty beyond the horizon. Let me put this into perspective with an unambiguous example. Some of you have asked me, what's my relation to Turkey? Well, everybody loves Rumi, but I learnt his tongue, so I could pick up where he left off. Some of you have asked me, what's my relation to Latin America? Well, everybody loves to yell "viva la libertad", but I learnt el idioma, so I could revolutionize the very paradigm of revolution. Every corner of earth has some distinct strongholds, and I am the force that brings them together to create a strong, sapient, and undivided planet.”
