Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?
The guru cannot awaken you; all that he can do is to point out what is. The guru can give you words; he can give you an explanation, the symbols of the mind, but the symbol is not the real, and if you are caught in the symbol, you will never find the way.
Let your aims be common, and your hearts of one accord, and all of you be of one mind, so you may live well together.
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
