If you cannot eliminate vices, magnify them. Worry, pride, anger, lust, grief — give them a bigger dimension and a different direction. What is the point of getting angry about small events? Be angry about the infinite, about Brahma. If you cannot get rid of pride, take pride in owning the Divine. If you are bothered by greed, be greedy for satsang. If cravings gnaw at you, crave the truth. If jealousy haunts you, be jealous about seva. Be averse to aversions. Attach yourself to the guru. Get intoxicated with the Divine.
— Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Celebrating Silence
