The great, unborn Self is undecaying, immortal, undying, fearless, infinite.
- Upanishads "Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 4.4.25"
The great, unborn Self is undecaying, immortal, undying, fearless, infinite.
To find out what is truly individual in ourselves, profound reflection is needed; and suddenly we realise how uncommonly difficult the discovery of individuality is.
Fight with yourself, why fight with external foes? He, who overcomes self will obtain happiness.
You should discover your own reality and not thwart yourself. For you have the self as your only friend, or as your only enemy.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
The best way to find your self is to lose yourself in the service of others… All other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.
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.
If you wish to be free, know you are the Self, the witness of all these, the heart of awareness. Set your body aside; sit in your own awareness. You will be at once happy, forever still, forever free.
If a man considers that he is born, he cannot avoid the fear of death. Let him find out if he has been born or if the Self has any birth. ...Find from where thoughts emerge. Then you will be able to abide in the ever-present inmost Self and be free from the idea of birth or the fear of death.
The one who loves himself, would atleast not worry or be jealous.
-Deep Trivedi
