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

Happiness is not to be sought in solitude or in busy centers. It is in the Self.

That alone is Real which exists by itself, which reveals itself by itself and which is eternal and unchanging.

What exists in truth is the Self alone. The world, the individual soul and God are appearances in it. Like silver in mother-of-pearl, these three appear at the same time and disappear at the same time. The Self is that where there is absolutely no 'I thought'. That is called 'Stillness'. The Self itself is the world; the Self itself is 'I'; the Self itself is God; all is Siva, the Self.

If you observe awareness steadily, this awareness itself becomes the Guru that will reveal the Truth.

Good thoughts keep off bad thoughts. They must themselves disappear before the state of realization.

Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The Sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
