“My dear child, if you desire to be free from the cycle of birth and death, then abandon the objects of sense gratification as poison. Drink instead the nectar of forbearance, upright conduct, mercy, cleanliness and truth.”

He who gives up shyness in monetary dealings, in acquiring knowledge, in eating and in business, becomes happy.

A person becomes great not be sitting on some high seat, but through higher qualities. Can a crow become an eagle by simply sitting on the top of a palatial building?

Avoid him who talks sweetly before you but tries to ruin you behind your back, for he is like a pitcher of poison with milk on top.

A man is great by deeds, not by birth.

The foolish wish to speak out what was spoken in secret by the master.

Purity of speech, of the mind, of the senses, and of a compassionate heart are needed by one who desires to rise to the divine platform.

Sinfully acquired wealth may remain for ten years; in the eleventh year it disappears with even the original stock.

Charity puts and end to poverty; righteous conduct to misery; discretion to ignorance; and scrutiny to fear.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

As long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is immanent what can you do?

One’s weakness should not ever be revealed.

When one is consumed by the sorrows of life, three things give him relief: offspring, a wife, and the company of the Lord’s devotees.

Don’t judge the future of a person based on his present conditions, because time has the power to change black coal to shiny diamond.

Time perfects men as well as destroys them.

Considersing the forebearance of a person, Do not harass him.

Our bodies are perishable, wealth is not at all permanent and death is always nearby. Therefore we must immediately engage in acts of merit.

Words come and flow with me instantaneously. Perhaps, those were abandoned too by someone.

Anyone who abandons you is for teaching you how to stand up on your own two feet.

I was so moved by your false affections I was pushed right off the ledge but love didn’t come to find me abandonment did instead.

My longing for intimacy does not abandon the love I’ve built for myself.

My longing for intimacy does not abandon the love I’ve built for myself.

I want to talk with you about the love revolution and how the clouds above us turn pink every time I kiss you. I know where in my lucid dreams there is a door behind which there are all the abandoned dreams you can dream forever.

I’m actually great at being alone. It was being abandoned that was hard.

The sun doesn’t abandon the moon to darkness.
