Avoid the company of the wicked, those who would do injury to you or to others. Like a disease their energy is something you can catch.
-Rama

Hold a positive thought of an enlightened person in your mind. When that thought touches their aura, it comes back quickly with a positive lift. You will go up.
-Rama

There is obstruction. Enlightenment is not very popular in this world. History tells us that enlightened teachers who made themselves largely available to human beings had problems.
-Rama

The ultimate horror movie for a really un-illuminated being is an enlightened person. They are scared of others seeing what they are all about and what they really do. They are scared of truth.
-Rama

Most teachers are not enlightened. Very few are. That doesn't mean they are not great teachers.
-Rama

Be enlightened for you, just for you. No one else knows or cares. They crucified Christ, you know. They don't take real well, on this planet, to the people who see things differently.
-Rama

After enlightenment your body changes tremendously; its very molecular structure changes just because the kundalini is always streaming through you.
-Rama

There is no way to explain enlightenment. It is just a word to indicate something beyond, something very, very far beyond the normal human condition.
-Rama

A better name for nirvana might be endless love. Love not even in the sense that we see it if we're watching the romantic movie, but love in a sense of no absence.
-Rama

I have not in this lifetime yet met one person who earnestly seeks enlightenment in the West. Not one person.
-Rama

I think perhaps the greatest book ever written was Ulysses by James Joyce.
-Rama

If you are liberated then you can be in the crowd and there is no crowd. You can be surrounded by the world and their is no world. You have shattered the prism of illusion.
-Rama

Enlightenment means that you're in love with all of life, with not only immortality but mortality.
-Rama

Enlightenment simply means that you've run out of questions, and that the answers don't matter anymore.
-Rama

Enlightenment does not put an end to awareness. It puts an end to limited awareness. It doesn't necessarily put an end to incarnation. It puts an end to reincarnation.
-Rama

Enlightenment doesn't simply mean being in heavenly states of mind. It doesn't mean being a saint.
-Rama

Once you have mastered the ten thousand states of mind, it's paranirvana, the absorption into the stillness forever.
-Rama

Our adult personality is a mirror image of who we were in the last stage of our life in our previous incarnation.
-Rama

The greatest power in the universe is the power of unity, of oneness. All other powers are secondary. It is the only the only power that outlasts death. Death is the power of separativity; it separates us.
-Rama

At the time of death, whatever you have focused on the most will determine your next life.
-Rama

Nothing you can do can prevent your death. Nothing you can do can prevent your rebirth. To step beyond life and death is self-discovery.
-Rama

All action is generated by desire. It is the desire to live that causes us to reincarnate.
-Rama

The best things in life are free. Sunsets and sunrises are free. Air is free. Love is free. Death is free. The best things in life are free.
-Rama

Since you're going to die anyway, why not go do whatever it is you are in the mood to do. To postpone anything is ridiculous, if it's important to you.
-Rama

The good news is that we don't last. Thank heavens! Because to continue the drama of who you are, is boring, ultimately. The universe is our friend because it kills us - and that's what friends are for.
-Rama

The personality structure at the time of death dissolves. You will never be exactly the you you are again.
-Rama

When you die you forget. Death is a sleep, a forgetting. You forget about your previous lifetime. The essence of your being is the same. But at death, the personality dissolves
-Rama

The samsara is the sense of self. I've had past experiences. I'm aware of the moment. I will have future experiences.
-Rama

None of this exists. All important decisions in the universe occur someplace else.
-Rama

Happiness is not freedom. You may become happy tomorrow; but I assure you, your happiness will be smashed by the pains of your body as you age, by the all-encompassing death that swallows up everything and everyone in this world.
-Rama

Without enlightenment, everything in life is harsh. Sooner or later you see everyone you love die, unless you die first, of course. This causes you to suffer.
-Rama

People are so tired. The world is set up to exhaust you and drain you. That's how humankind has devised their world. Life is not necessarily that way
-Rama
