Life does not mean mere karma or mere bhakti or mere jnana.

If you want to cut down a tree, it is no use to climb into its branches.

We have seen from experience that, if we are in the habit of walking regularly on the same road, we are able to think about other things while walking, without paying attention to our steps.

I am convinced that those who get themselves involved in the machinery of power politics, even for the purpose of destroying it, are bound to fail in their purpose. To destroy it we have to stay out of it. If we want to cut down a tree, it is of no use to climb into its branches. The desire to keep contact with something, even to destroy it, is a subtle and insidious illusion.

Human life is full of the play of samskaras - tendencies developed by repeated actions.

Innumerable actions are going on through us all the time. If we started counting them, we should never come to an end.

The main reason why we look constantly to the Gita is that, whenever we need help, we may get it from the Gita. And, indeed, we always do get it.
