Whatever the world does, is indeed all a natural discharge [disposal of karma]. You may chant God’s name, you may do penance; it is all nature’s discharge. If someone garlands you, how is he obliging you? And if someone picks your pocket, how is he hurting you? One is instrumental in the charging (creation of new karma), but in the discharge, it is only nature’s doing. This is the ultimate vision of the Vitraags, the Enlightened ones free of attachment.

One gets ‘headaches’, because he gives headache to others.

No one in this world is in a position to interfere with you. Therefore, do not find fault with the world; the fault is only yours. These are the echoes of interferences that you had caused. Had you not interfered, there would be no echoes that would hit you.

As one becomes increasingly unsteady (restless), one increases entanglements.

There is no entanglement where there is truth, and where there is no truth, there is entanglement of playing with ‘toys’ (interaction with people).

The Gnanis [The enlightened ones] have said that if one lives as if he is dead, death will never come to him.

The Gnani Purush (the Self-realized One who can help others attain Self-realization) is in fact considered as a sevak (person who renders service without any selfish motive) and a Sevya (fit to be served, enlightened Lord) of the entire world. Not only am 'I' serving the entire world but 'I' am also partaking service from the entire world. If you understand this, then all your work can be done!

In religion, when is it considered that 'One has Known'? When not only does the adverse internal state of being that hurts oneself and others (raudradhyan) not arise, but also the slightest resultant effect of raudradhyan does not arise, to the extent that one does not even come across such a circumstance!

We are not deceiving anyone, we are only deceiving our own soul [our own Self].
