Man is the highest being that exists, and this is the greatest world.

Man is the nearest approach to Brahman.

The world is a demon. It is a kingdom of which the puny ego is king. Put it away and stand firm.

A man could be in a throne and have no attachment at all; another one could be in rags and have many attachments.

Meditative state is the highest state of existence. So long as there is desire, no real happiness can come. It is only the contemplative, witness-like study of objects that brings to us real enjoyment and happiness. The animal has its happiness in the senses, the man in his intellect, and the god in spiritual contemplation. It is only to the soul that has attained to this contemplative state that the world really becomes beautiful. To him who desires nothing, and does not mix himself up with them, the manifold changes of nature are one panorama of beauty and sublimity.

Go and preach to all, 'Arise, awake, sleep no more: within each of you there is the power to remove all wants and all miseries. Believe this, and that power will be manifested.

Immediately you will be perfect, you will become God.
