"We've got our own daylight to get bad thoughts away, and we talk with that light - our star in our heart. We take away what's unimportant"
About this Quote
The phrasing is deliberately intimate and slightly eccentric, as if translated from inner experience rather than polished for print. “We talk with that light - our star in our heart” turns self-care into dialogue, not discipline. The “bad thoughts” aren’t battled; they’re escorted out by illumination. That’s classic yoga-adjacent psychology: attention is everything, and what you feed grows.
Then she lands the quiet power move: “We take away what’s unimportant.” The subtext is subtraction over addition, which cuts against consumer culture’s default solution of more - more content, more noise, more fixes. For a “celebrity” figure, it’s also a subtle critique of fame’s clutter: the external spotlight can be blinding, but the inner one clarifies. Devi isn’t promising perfection; she’s offering a practice of editing the mind, keeping only what matters enough to live with.
