Our journey is principally an internal one of removing the sense of doership from all our activities.   The chief obstacle to understanding is our mind with its habitual thoughts.  No matter how sophisticated our mind and however well intentioned we may be, invariably we become attached to our activities and their results.  Even when we deny ourselves there is a trace of doership.

Teachings are meant to shake and awaken us;  if we listen aright we catch fire and burn with a new intensity and range of active understanding.   The ultimate teaching is not an answer but a silent transformation.

GOD runs a restaurant called  " KARMA ".   It is a place where there is no need to place any order.  You are served what you deserve automatically.

Death  is a concept of the mind and its identification with the body form.

Jnana Marga and Bhakti Marga are one and the same. Self surrender leads to realization just as enquiry does. Complete self-surrender means that you have no further of " I " . Then all your samskaras are washed off and you are free. You should not continue as a separate entity at the end of either course.

Sri Krishna's family does not escape Gandhari's curse. Thus even God surrenders to the law of Karma. By making man the master of his own destiny and the creator of his own desires, God makes man ultimately responsible for the life he leads and choices he makes. God does not interfere with fate; he simply helps man cope with it.

At least on one's birthday one should mourn one's entry into this world. To glory in it and celebrate it is like delighting in and decorating a corpse. To seek one's self and merge in the SELF - that is wisdom ............ RAMANA MAHARSHI
