| "You have to show by precept and by example that the path of self-realisation
is the path to perfect joy. Hence, on you lies a great responsibility:
the responsibility of demonstrating by your calmness, composure, humility,
purity, virtue, courage and conviction under all circumstances, that the
sadhana you practice has made you a better, happier and more useful person.
Practise and demonstrate, do not simply assert in words and deny in deeds.

Om Peace ! Peace ! Peace ! |

"Contentedly live upon whatever comes to your lot, as ordained by Him - Learn to live in the inner joy of a peaceful mind rather than in the excitements gained through sense-gratifications. Whatever we "meet in life" is ordered by our past, and "how we meet them" alone determines the future progress and growth of our inner personality. To be at peace with ourselves, and in a joyous sense of inner contentment and satisfaction, ever ready to face the world as it is and act - is, according to Shankara the right -way-of-life for a seeker" |
| "When you have attained true wisdom, you will find that good fortune
should not be gloated over, nor bad fortune grieved over. The Hero treats
both with equal unconcern. They are breezes and storms that cannot affect
the depths of the Ocean of Bliss in the heart of Man."
