What is nature like? It does not allow any living being to do what it wants even to the slightest extent. But the one through whom no-one is hurt even to the slightest extent, be it through mind, speech or conduct, nature gives such a person all the authority to do what they want.

By not hurting anyone through one's mind, speech and action, all the vows (vrat) are encompassed in this!

There is sheel (the highest state of conduct in worldly interaction) when not a single living being is ever hurt even to the slightest extent through the mind, through the ego, through the antahkaran (the mind-intellect-chit-ego complex). Sheel arises for the one who maintains such an intent.

Any kind of misery there is in the worldly life; the cause of it all is moha (illusory attachement).

Raag-dwesh (attachment-abhorrence), krodh-maan-maya-lobh (anger-pride-deceit-greed), they all cause misery. That is called kashaya (inner enemies that gives pain to soul).

Whom can you consider as God? It is he who has become completely independent in this world and he does not have anyone above [superior] him, he is God. When one cannot even see his dependency, how can he realize his own independence?

Happiness and misery are both delusions. One has a delusion of misery in the heat and a delusion of happiness under the shade of a tree. If he is made to sit under the tree the whole night, then he will feel misery even there.

Any kind of misery there is in the worldly life; the cause of it is moha (illusory vision).

This worldly life will stick only if one likes it; it is not likely to stick otherwise.
