What else does one obtain by realization of God? Does one grow two horns? No, the mind becomes pure, and through a pure mind one attains knowledge and awakening.

The difference between a great soul and an ordinary man is this: the latter weeps while leaving this body, whereas the former laughs. Death seems to him a mere play.

As long as a man has desires there is no end to his transmigration. It is the desires alone that make him take one body after another. There will be rebirth for a man if he has even the desire to eat a piece of candy.

Desire may be compared to a minute seed. It is like a big banyan tree growing out of a seed, which is no bigger than a dot.

As clouds are blown away by the wind, the thirst for material pleasures will be driven away by the utterance of the Lord's name.

One should perform even an insignificant task with respect.

One must be patient like the earth. What iniquities are being perpetuated on her! Yet she quietly endures them all.
