“We need to educate people in human values like friendliness,compassion,cooperation,a sense of belonging and spirituality .” SRI SRI...

Our Very Nature
Enlightenment is not an achievement. Rather, getting rid of ignorance is an achievement, getting rid of all the stresses and tension. Because our very nature is enlightenment. That's why "human" and "Divine" are not two things. "Human" is the outer skin and "Divine" is the inside.

Flow with present
Flow with present moment without getting caught in any expectation of how joyful or comfortable the next minute to be.

Incomplete and Infinite
Love is incomplete. And it will have to remain incomplete. If it completes, it finds an end. Whatever is completed, whatever is full, total, that means you have marked the boundaries, you have found its limitations. For love to be infinite, it has got to be incomplete.
