More on Self
“What Can I Tell You about Myself which You Have Not Already Found Out from Those Who Do Not Lie?”
“The self is not only the centre but also the whole circumference which embraces both conscious and unconscious; it is the centre of this totality, just as the ego is the centre of consciousness.”
“Always discriminate-your body, your house, the people and the world are all absolutely unreal like a dream. Always think that the body is only an inert instrument. And the Atman within is your real nature.”
More on Wisdom
“Before we set our hearts too much upon anything, let us examine how happy they are, who already possess it.”
“Do not mistake for wisdom that opinion which may rise from a sick mind.”
“The hard soil and four months of snow make the inhabitants of the northern temperate zone wiser and abler than his fellow who enjoys the fixed smile of the tropics.”
