My true Self is free. I cannot be contained.
Confine yourself to the present.
It is in your power to withdraw yourself whenever you desire. Perfect tranquility within consists in the good ordering of the mind, the realm of your own.
Short is the little which remains to thee of life. Live as on a mountain.
No one was ever injured by the truth; but he who persists in self-deception and ignorance is injured.
Discard everything except these few truths: we can live only in the present moment, in this brief now; all the rest of our life is dead and buried or shrouded in uncertainty. Short is the life we lead, and small our patch of earth.
