Be happy for those who are happy, have compassion towards the unhappy, and maintain equanimity towards the wicked.
PatanjaliWhen there is firm conquest over covetousness, they who have conquered it wake up to the how and why of life.
PatanjaliUndisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and indifference toward the wicked.
PatanjaliHere is, in truth, the whole secret of Yoga, the science of the soul. The active turnings, the strident vibrations, of selfishness, lust and hate are to be stilled by meditation, by letting heart and mind dwell in spiritual life, by lifting up the heart to the strong, silent life above, which rests in the stillness of eternal love, and needs no harsh vibration to convince it of true being.
