Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter which fork you use.
Any caterpillar who tried to “know himself” would never become a butterfly.
The Self, having in dreams enjoyed the pleasures of sense, gone hither and thither, experienced good and evil, hastens back to the state of waking from which he started. As a man passes from dream to wakefulness, so does he pass from this life to the next.
In thinking, “This is I” and “That is mine”, he binds himself with his self, as does a bird with a snare.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
Everything is expression of our own intelligence. Through simple, innocent, natural unbounded awareness-fullness of Self, all is accomplished… Only we should not be influenced by the winds.
Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the real you sleeping in your heart.
