Don't give up your power to change things. Negativity and unhappiness are caused by you. You can change your attitude.

You are the cause of your own joy or your own misery. You hold that power. You are your own friend and your own enemy.

Mere philosophy will not satisfy us. We cannot reach the goal by mere words alone. Without practice, nothing can be achieved. (3)

. . . I feel we don’t really need scriptures. The entire life is an open book, a scripture. Read it. Learn while digging a pit or chopping some wood or cooking some food. If you can’t learn from your daily activities, how are you going to understand the scriptures? (233)

We can see the same spirit in everybody only when we know we are that spirit, Atman or Self. Only a person who has understood his own Self can see that Self in everybody.

The dedicated ever enjoy Supreme Peace. Therefore, live only to serve.

One truth, many paths.
