-There is a difference between being lonely and being alone - a lonely person is afraid of silence and tries to escape this through objects, beings and situations while a person being alone appreciates silence
-Detachment without reattachment is impotent - our personalities need to evolve by gradually detaching from our self to serve our family, detach from our family to serve our community, and finally detach from our community to serve all
-When our Love is directed towards a lower entity (i.e. an object) this is called sneha and is selfish in nature - when our Love is directed towards a higher entity (i.e. the needy) this is called prema and is selfless in nature
-Love is the reward of Love - to desire Love is to be a beggar of Love
-As long as there is fear in one's heart, there cannot be Love - Self Knowledge dispels fear and so instills Love
-The key to Enlightenment is Love - the more we immerse ourselves in prema the more we discover our Divine Nature
-A Master Loves His friend and foe equally - we learn the most from those who need our Love the most so loving difficult people is best for our growth
-To be able to give Love one first has to have Love - just as we need to have faith in our self to have faith in others, in the same way we need to Love our self to be able to Love others
-Real Love is when two entities join not to become 2, rather to become 3 - Love transforms work into inspiration with efficiency as its result
