(The real brahmin is the one who:) ... has crossed beyond duality ...knows no this shore, other shore, or both ...(is) settled in mind ... without inflowing thoughts ...is without attachment ...endures undisturbed criticism, ill-treatment and bonds, (and is) strong in patience ...(is) without anger, devout, upright, free from craving, disciplined and in his last body ...has experienced the end of his suffering here in this life, who has set down the burden, freed!

People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.

You, as much as anyone in the universe, deserve your love and respect.

Of all the worldly passions, lust is the most intense. All other worldly passions seem to follow in its train.

The self of which you speak, whether it is the great self or the small self, is only a concept that does not correspond to any reality.

When action comes out of nothing it creates no karma.

They who imagine truth in untruth and see untruth in truth will never arrive at the truth.
