Assess the work of whatever others do to you or say about you, and cultivate fortitude and the understanding to appreciate their behaviour and pardon their faults. This capacity is as invaluable as truth, righteousness, wisdom, non-violence, renunciation, delight and compassion. It is all that one need possess for spiritual advancement.

Your true nature is purity, peace and joy.

You are seeking joy and peace in far-off places. But the spring of joy is in your heart. The haven of peace is in yourself.

If you sing alone in your shrine, the vibrations return to you as a reaction. But in community singing, what you have is not a reaction but a wave of vibrations. They enter into the atmosphere and purify the polluted air.

The man filled with good qualities like Truth, Love, absence of jealousy, ego and hatred, can see God without searching for Him. He becomes a Jnani (a man of spiritual wisdom).

Make the mind, the voice and the actions agree in harmony. That is the right way of life.

Start the day with love, spend the day with love, fill the day with love and end the day with love. That is the way to God.
