Text Quotes
At the moment, for example, maybe ten percent of money in the world is related to goods and services. Ninety percent of money is just moving around the world, chasing money. So, money has become the ruler. And we have become the servant.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Our relationship with Nature... best way of forging this relationship... be a pilgrim and not a tourist on Planet Earth  (Satish Kumar Quotes) The way to healthy living is to shift from quantitative economic growth to quality of life, food, water and air - to shift from craving to contentment and from greed to gratitude  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Look at what realists have done for us. They have led us to war and climate change, poverty on an unimaginable scale, and wholesale ecological destruction. Half of humanity goes to bed hungry because of all the realistic leaders in the world. I tell people who call me ‘unrealistic’ to show me what their realism has done. Realism is an outdated, overplayed and wholly exaggerated concept  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Instead of seeking success we should look for fulfillment. And fulfillment is giving total attention to the process of living.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) I want New Story education to be skilling human beings and young people to provide basic human needs. Technology and all other things are icing on the cake.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Of course, we all need to have basic necessities met, such as good health care, good food, good education and good housing. But what is good? Having too much is bad, as having too little is also bad.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Happiness is possible only when we are kind to others and contented within  (Satish Kumar Quotes) We are dependent on each other. Therefore, replenishing the soil, replenishing society and being part of one continuum - that’s the new story.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) We need to learn to live in the here and now; this moment is the best moment. Live it fully.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) All the big problems of the world today are routed in the philosophy of separateness and dualism  (Satish Kumar Quotes) We then came to the Soviet Union. One day we were walking and carrying our banner and distributing a few leaflets in Russian to people, and we met two women on the road  (Satish Kumar Quotes) You have no skills in your hands. You have no education of understanding the meaning and the purpose and the compassion and the relationship. You have just a profession.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Each of us needs to eliminate our anger, fear and greed. The roots of social conflicts and political tensions are in personal anger, fear and greed.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) When you come to the spiritual needs, the emotional needs, the needs of our inner life, then politics and business and technology are completely impotent. They are completely unable to meet and address the needs of human beings.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) If we had kept the vision of interconnectedness, we would not have created the kind of environmental crisis facing the world today.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) In fact, the environmental crisis is related to the crisis of aesthetics, crisis of social cohesion and the crisis of spiritual values.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) If we had adhered to the concept of connectedness, then we would not have created nuclear weapons, huge armies and global warming.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) The great work of social transformation begins with the first small step of stopping, calming, relaxing, reflecting and acting in a beneficial way.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Education provides you a profession. But not vocation. You do it only because you need to work to earn money to buy your food, buy your clothes, pay the bills. Our life has a greater meaning, and a greater purpose.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) If happiness was in money or power, then America should be the happiest country in the world, but it is not.  (Satish Kumar Quotes) One was a book I read by Mahatma Gandhi. In it was a passage where he said that religion, the pursuing of the inner journey, should not be separated from the pursuing of the outer and social journey, because we are not isolated beings  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Kennedy had been assassinated a month or so before. So we walked to the grave of John Kennedy and ended our walking symbolically at the Arlington National Cemetery  (Satish Kumar Quotes) That was my childhood. I grew up with the monks, studying Sanskrit and meditating for hours in the morning and hours in the evening, and going once a day to beg for food  (Satish Kumar Quotes) This gives us more time to attend the inner need  (Satish Kumar Quotes) I was pursuing the inner path at the expense of the rest of my being and the rest of the world  (Satish Kumar Quotes) If you can kill animals, the same attitude can kill human beings. The mentality is the same which exploits nature and which creates wars  (Satish Kumar Quotes) If we remove ourselves from the world, we are pretending that we can follow our own individual enlightenment and let the rest of the world go to hell, so to speak  (Satish Kumar Quotes) It became extremely important that we go and see the four heads of the governments, and the message was delivered, with the tea packets, to all these heads  (Satish Kumar Quotes) Monks will have three begging bowls for their food: one for water, one for liquid food, one for dry food  (Satish Kumar Quotes)
