“Whenever you are hurt the intensity of the pain and your reaction to it depends on your personality, the stage you are in your life journey and “which you” was hurt. If the professional you was hurt - the hurt is relatively at a superficial level and can in fact sometimes translate to you improving yourself. If the adult in you was hurt it goes a little deep and often has visible retaliations such as anger, revenge, fighting. But if the child in an adult is hurt, that goes very deep, is often characterized by silence as a reaction and takes a long - long time to heal.”

“Whenever you are in anger, remember yourself. In that very remembering the focus changes, the gestalt changes. You become more and more centred. Anger remains there just on the periphery of your being, but you know now that it is separate from you. You are not angry, you are only a witness to it. Now it is up to you to choose to be angry or not to be angry. You are no more identified; hence the freedom to choose.”

“Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him. Will he gain anything by it? Will it restore him to a control over his own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to swaraj for the hungry and spiritually starving millions?”

“Whenever you ask God to help your inner life, it's impossible to ask too much. Give yourself permission to ask big. Demand that God give you more than a thimble-sized blessing. Ask for huge amounts of self-love, self confidence, spiritual awakening, clarity, personal power. Or choose anything else that will strengthen you.”
