The Self is you. It is everything. It is God. That is who you really are.

Do not spend your time thinking about the world or your relationships to individuals. These are all impermanent. They have only to do with the body.

What do we lose by another's good fortune? Let us celebrate with them, or strive to emulate them. That should be our desire and determination.

Of all the human values, three are most important. The foremost is love of God. Where there is love there is sacrifice. There arises purity of heart. There should be a fusion of love, sacrifice and purity. They are not mere human qualities. They constitute vital organs of a human being. They are as essential for a human being as the head, hands and legs for the body. Without these attributes, no one is a complete human being.

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).

Give up all bad qualities in you, banish the ego and develop the spirit of surrender. You will then experience Bliss.

As close as you are to God, so close is God to you.
