Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need. In truth you owe not to any man.You owe all to all men.
Reality has no continuity; it is from moment to moment,
ever new, ever fresh. What has continuity can never be creative.Reality is not to be spoken of; and
when it is, it is no longer reality..
Teach me to be like the ripe orange which, though crushed and bitten, fails not to impart
its innate sweetness..
When negative thought such as hatred or anger are present, even a friend is seen as an enemy, but when all negative thoughts disappear even an enemy becomes a friend.
The solution to the problem of suffering lies in understanding the Divine Will and having a vivid awareness of the divine purpose and being subservient
to serve this purpose.
As compassion grows stronger so does the willingness to commit yourself to the welfare of all beings.
If you are able, you should help others. If you are not able you should at least not harm others...
To realize the purpose of life in mundane world, one must know the character of our total environment as well as the purpose of life and must connect it with the needs of our human nature in its universal search for happiness..
True love and compassion exists when the suffering of all others becomes unbearable – whether they be friends, mere acquaintances or even enemies.
The desire to do harm, to hurt another, whether by a word, by a gesture, or more deeply, is strong in most of us;
it is common and frighteningly pleasant. Inward turmoil drives us to seek outward protection; and the more one defends oneself, the greater the attack on others
The ultimate objective of a learned man should be to know the truth but this could have been possible not only through the accumulation of knowledge but also through the implementation of that knowledge in practical life. There should be coordination between speech, understanding and knowing of an educated person.
Reward and punishment exist only when there is no humility. Humility is not an end result of spiritual practices and denials. Humility is not an achievement, it is not a virtue to be cultivated. A cultivated virtue
is not the abnegation of the self, but a negative assertion of the self..
I will conquer pride by humility, hate by love, excitement by calmness, selfishness by generosity, evil by good,
ignorance by knowledge, and restlessness by the peace of meditation on Thee..
BEST REGARDS
