Top 10 Best Quotes

“You are not the 'doer' of this, there is a mistake in your belief. For the work that is not Yours, you claim, "I did it." Moreover, You are not even aware of what Your work is. Therefore, how much of Your work would be accomplished? No work has been accomplished. You had come without awakened awareness (jagruti); you were born in this world, and that too without awakened awareness, and you left without awakened awareness too. You ended up binding so much demerit karma without doing anything?”

“When is vyavasthit (result of scientific circumstantial evidences) formed? When someone instigates you and you become engrossed in that, there you became avasthit (absorbed in its effect), and that itself is the formation of vyavasthit!”

“Whatever one’s belief arises, he will find tools corresponding to his beliefs. With the belief of the ‘Self’, there is only one ‘tool’ to acquire the Knowledge of the Self, that tool is the ‘Gnani Purush’ (the enlightened one). Contemplation of the Gnani Purush (the enlightened one) is the very tool with which the Soul will continue to manifest.”

“What should one do to get rid of ignorance? Attain Gnan (Knowledge of the Self). Use tools such as books and scriptures for attaining knowledge but if you meet a Gnani Purush (the Enlightened One), then you don’t need any tools. The Soul (Self) is inexpressible and indescribable. It cannot be put in books.”

“What is the assurance that one is Vitaraag? The answer is, it is when no worldly things come to memory. Besides attaining a state completely free of worldly attachment and abhorrence (vitaraagata), one cannot forget the world.”

“Until you know 'Who am I?' (have realization of your true Self), merit karma is always to be accumulated [is acceptable] and demerit karma is worthy of being cast off.”

“To reside in the place which makes you forget worldly life, and to move away from the place that entangles you further in worldly life; the one who understands such discretion (vivek) will be able to accomplish his spiritual work.”

“To remain in the awakened awareness state in the midst of the Knower (Gnata) and the object to be known (gneya) is penance itself. For the Knower to not become the object to be known is itself invisible internal penance (adeetha tapa).”

“To never hinder our progress after attaining the path of Liberation should be our goal.”

“There is no problem with the relative, but the problem is with the fact that you are becoming one with the relative.”
