“The source of the ego is God.”

To the extent we behave with humility, to that extent good will result.

If a person realises his position and stays in his own self, things that are to happen will happen. Things that are not to happen will not happen. The shakti that is in the world, is only one. All these troubles arise if we think that we are separate from that shakti.

No one succeeds without effort. Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance.

Liberation exists- and you will never be liberated.

In the Heart’s cavity, the sole Brahman as an ever-persisting ‘I’ shines direct in the form of the Self. Into the Heart enter thyself, with mind in search or in deeper plunge. Or by restraint of life-movement be firmly poised in the Self.

Remove the Ego and Avidya (Ignorance) is gone. Look for it, the ego vanishes and the real Self alone remains.

Instead of indulging in mere speculation, devote yourself here and now to the search for the Truth that is ever within you.

The self cannot be found in books. You have to find it for yourself, within yourself.

If the mind falls asleep, awaken it. Then if it starts wandering, make it quiet. If you reach the state where there is neither sleep nor movement of mind, stay still in that, the natural (real) state.

Your true nature is that of infinite spirit. The feeling of limitation is the work of the mind.

All activities and events that a body is to go through are determined at the time of conception.

We are in our Self. We are not in the world.

God’s grace consists in the fact that He shines in the heart of every one as the Self; that power of grace does not exclude any one, whether good or otherwise.

The place where even the slightest trace of the ‘I’ does not exist, alone is Self.

Discover your undying Self and be immortal and happy.

Forgetfulness of your real nature is true death; remembrance of it is rebirth.

Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy. Children are completely egoistic; they feel their needs intensely and strive ruthlessly to satisfy them.

The ego is not master in its own house.

Where id was, there ego shall be.

I don’t have an ego that makes me believe the world revolves around me. I am not self-absorbed.

The minute you start compromising for the sake of massaging somebody’s ego, that’s it, game over.

Darkness is an absence of light. Ego is an absence of awareness.

Love in its purest form is a sharing of joy. It asks nothing in return, it expects nothing. Love is a spiritual phenomenon; lust is physical. Ego is psychological; love is spiritual.

There’s only one rule you need to remember: laugh at everything and forget everybody else! It sounds egotistical, but it’s actually the only cure for those suffering from self-pity.
