“Just as the honey-fascinated bee goes from flower to flower, so should the wisdom-fascinated person go from guru to guru.”

Sri Venkaiah Swamy
1) You must feed those who are hungry and seek your help.
2) Our existence depends on their existence.
3) Write this down: Venkaiah is present in all living beings.
4) I have grown the crop for everyone. Make sure that thieves do not come and steal it.
5) It is better for us to leave than to ask someone else to leave.
6) What is so great about being righteous as a renunciate? Being righteous in family life is the true greatness.
7) Even if it’s among a thousand sheep, you can grab your sheep by the leg and pull it back.
8) Where is the mantra? Where is the tantra? It is something you have to observe and understand as you go along.
9) If you come here with complete faith, whatever you wish for will come true.
10) Even if you leave me, I will not leave you.
11) What will you gain by seeing the king? Whatever you have is what will remain with you.
12) When you can see everyone equally, then you can see God.
13) Your faith in me is what moves me.
14) It is good to pay the laborer his wages before his sweat dries.
15) Even when lending money to others at interest, one should not abandon righteousness.
16) If you steal a quarter rupee, you will incur a loss of ten rupees.
17) If you become greedy for profit, you will have to share in that sin.
18) Make sure the thread doesn’t break. I will always be with you.
19) If you give up excessive greed, it is as if you have given up everything.
20) Isn’t it good to learn to live a simple life, observing proper etiquette, and serving the true spiritual masters?
