“It is within your competence to think and thus to get bound or to cease thinking and thus be free.”

One must realise his Self in order to open the store of unalloyed happiness.

In truth, you are spirit. The body has been projected by the mind, which itself originates from Spirit.

We dig a well and create a huge pit. The space in the pit or well has not been created by us. We have just removed the earth which was filling the space there. The space was there then and is also there now.

The world is illusory, Only Brahman is real, Brahman is the world

See who is the doubter, who is the thinker. It is the ego. Hold it; the other thoughts will die away – the ego will be left pure. See the source from where the ego arises and abide in it. That is pure consciousness.

If you make the thief the policeman there will be lots of investigation but no arrests will ever be made.

The inquiry “who am I” turns the mind introvert and makes it calm.

It is said that the I-activity is the root of all activities. From where the I-thought emerges, that in short is the heart.

Peace is for the purification of one’s mind. Power is for the growth of the community. Having established the community with power, one should then establish supreme peace.

There are no impediments to meditation. The very thought of such obstacles is the greatest impediment.

Thoughts come and go. Feelings come and go. Find out what it is that remains.

One should remain as a witness to whatever happens, adopting the attitude, ‘Let whatever strange things that happens happen, let us see!’ This should be one’s practice. Nothing happens by accident in the divine scheme of things.

Peace can reign only where there is no disturbance, and disturbance is due to thoughts that arise in the mind.

The search “Who am I” ends in the annihilation of the illusory “I” and the Self which remains over will be as clear as a gooseberry in the palm of one’s hand.
