The ego dies and the ego lives, but people say that ‘I died’. That which takes birth and dies is the ego, and the Soul is in the same place (is always intact). Even Pudgal (the atoms that were charged; which are being discharged in the form of mind, body, speech) is in the same place. The issue is only of the ego in the middle.

When the mind and the Self (Soul) become engrossed (tanmayakar) only then it is called artadhyan (mournful contemplation that hurts the self), and also one does not become aware that artadhyan has occurred. And if one realizes that artadhyan has occurred, then it is not called artadhyan; then it is the mind.

When will money not come to one? It is when he speaks ill of others and scandalizes. Money will come to the one who has purity of mind, body and speech.

The worldly life remains [and is not ending and one is not going to moksha] due to the pollution of the mind [bad mind/bad thoughts] and not due to the pollution of the body.

How can the thoughts be stopped? Tell the thoughts, ‘You take care of your own issues; I am not on your side.’ That way you will sit on God’s side.

Where a mind gets solution, it is called religion; and when the mind does not get solution it is irreligion.

Thought is actually something that is dead, it is not a living thing. If ‘Self’ gets engrossed in what is dead, then it will become alive.

Where our own mind doesn’t listen to us, how can others' minds follow what we say? One should not have such expectation at all.

The rule is that when one’s mind can be controlled in a specific subject; he can make the other person take control of his mind in that subject.
