Where there is not the slightest of misery; that is where the Soul is.

That which cures all worldly miseries, is called ‘Scientific’ Knowledge.

Maintaining equanimity in misery is called penance (tapa).

Besides the Self [Soul], what is everything else? It is all worldly interactions (vyavahar). And worldly interaction is dependent on the non-Self (parashrit).

This worldly disease has increased into a chronic disease! How can one become free from it? If one attains the ‘science’, he can be free!

Am I doing this?’ or ‘Is someone else doing this?’ is in such close proximity, that one does not realize [who the real doer is].

It is very wrong to make fun of anyone because you make fun of the Lord residing within. It doesn’t matter if it is a donkey, but after all, (finally) who is he? He is God.

The worldly knowledge that you have received, do not dispense justice on the basis of that worldly knowledge. I have spoken of 'vyavasthit' (result of scientific circumstantial evidences), dispense justice on the basis of that Knowledge. The basis of worldly knowledge will torment you. If worldly knowledge dispels then worldly life goes. It is with the Knowledge of vyavasthit, that worldly knowledge dispels.

There should not be attachment to what is liked and there should be no abhorrence to what is disliked. Like and dislike are mind’s functions; it is not ‘Our’ (Self) function.
