If a man's mind becomes pure, his surroundings will also become pure.

If with an impure mind a person speaks or acts suffering follows him like the wheel that follows the foot of the ox.

If you find someone with wisdom, good judgment, and good actions; make him a companion.

(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!

Overcome your uncertainties and free yourself from dwelling on sorrow. When you delight in existence, you will awaken, and become a guide to those in need, revealing the path to many.

Just as a picture is drawn by an artist, surroundings are created by the activities of the mind

Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
