People want the fruits of virtue but do not do virtuous
action; they do not want the fruits of sin and yet commit sin with great
efforts.
The sins that begin with fear of God and ends with begging
forgiveness from him may bring one closer to God; the penance that begins with
ego and ends in pride will take the person away from God.
Lust for wealth, expectation of respect and desire to be
famous are three most dangerous enemies; be cautious.
Lust spoils but contentment satisfies. Be content with what
you have and where you are; and travel inside for greater things and better
places.
While enchanting the world gives a lot but when lured it
takes all.
Debate, oratory and egotism are all outer presentations.
Inside there is complete silence, immobility and tranquility.
Slowly O mind, everything happens at its own pace. The
gardener may water a hundred buckets, but the fruits will arrive only when it
is due.
I stand in a market place and desire the benefit of all; I am
neither related to anyone nor am I anyone’s enemy.
The world keeps dying but no one knows how to die. No one
dies in such a manner that he won’t die again.
Don’t be proud if you get immense riches; don’t get aggrieved
if you get nothing. Think of God and do your duties.
He is wise who has no worldly attachments. He is wise who
neither thinks of nor waits for death. He is wise who knows that his God is
pleased with him.
Detachment is the way to salvation. Be detached without
exposing it. Exposition incites others and hardens the pressure.
What you call salvation happens in the time before death. Oh
friend, hope for him while you live, know him while you live, understand while
you live; for in life lies the secret of deliverance.
Do whatever you can in coming closer to God, but always take
that as God’s grace.
What is God? He is the breath inside your breath.
If you know God, you don’t need to say that you know God. The
light of God will inform all.
