Know yourself and you will know God. Are you a body, a mind, a soul or something else or nothing? Can you be anything you want to be or you are already everything you want to be?

When you feel secure, you can be the best version of yourself. Insecurity brings out the worst version of you.

A student asks, "Sir, if you're enlightened, why are you stuck in this body?" Guru replies, "This body is a drop in the ocean. I am the ocean, not a drop. Since you identify yourself as a drop, you only see drops around you.

Imagine people sitting around fire under a starry sky and wondering who we are and where we have come from. But instead we sit in drawing rooms and make statements: "I am so and so, my son is so and so, my god is so and so, my holy book is so and so." If you have already assumed an identity, how will you know who you really are?

You are one with the universe. When you try to create an identity separate from the universe, you feel small and insignificant. Then starts the struggle to avoid that feeling. Then you try to pump up that separate identity (ego) through illusions of money, power and status.

You are infinite but the character you're playing has certain boundaries. Before you discover those healthy boundaries, you will be so excessively kind that your soul will cry and so excessively mean that your conscience will hurt.

Relax, you're just playing a role. Your original self is powerful and eternal.

While being non-violent to others, don't start doing violence to your own self. That would be doing the same thing in reverse.

Your whole being is like a home. Everyone is allowed to come at the door, only a few in living room, fewer still in bedroom. And then there is a secret room where nobody is allowed. Not even your own mind.We are so obsessed with others that we mostly live at the door (outer appearance) or in living room (job, relationship and travel that we do to fit with others).
