Prem Rawat: You are pure. But your purity is contaminated by the noise that you allowed to echo between your ears. You memorize that which causes you pain and suffering. You ignore that that can bring you comfort. Comfort. In your hard times, there is something so...

How many of you think something has to be done to have peace? A few! There’s more. Come on, there’s a lot more. Because we are the doers! We’re the doers. If we want to make okra, it has to be made; it has to be cut. It doesn’t come that way from the okra plant. You...

We have a program that is initiated by TPRF, The Prem Rawat Foundation. And one of the things that the Foundation puts out is the Peace Education Program—and we call it “PEP.” The PEP has just started a few years back, and it’s one of the most incredible programs...

If you have ever seen a magician perform—and you have to pay attention to how they do what they do—it’s very interesting. Because whatever they do (if they’re hiding a coin or whatever), they distract you from what’s really happening, and they’ll do something else...

This is your life; this is your day. And you cannot judge your life by the things that happen in it—because good things will happen and bad things will happen. And this is what’s going to make you incredibly vulnerable. Your life doesn’t live for your dreams. Your...

Who are you? If you don’t know who you are, how do you know how you’re supposed to be? How are you supposed to be? Because we don’t know who we are. We don’t know who we are. What is a human being? A human being is the vessel that is capable of feeling peace. If you...

It’s all too easy to start living with reference to other people. “What are other people wearing? What should I wear? I want to be normal.” There is a huge quest in people, “I want to fit in; I want to be normal; I want to comply!” We still want to be like other...
