Concerned alone with the upholding of the world, you should act. Whatever the best man does, others do that also. The world follows the standard he sets for himself.
Quotations
Srimad Bhagavad Gita
Having attained human birth, which is an open gateway to Brahmn, one who… remains attached to the ties of the world is not fit to be called human.
This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
You should discover your own reality and not thwart yourself. For you have the self as your only friend, or as your only enemy.
This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
All created beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their interim state and unmanifest again when they are annihilated. So what need is there for lamentation?
Only by devotional service is the Supreme Truth, Krishna, pleased, and by His inconceivable energy. He can reveal Himself to the heart of the pure devotee.
The true nature of action is very difficult to understand. Therefore, one should know the nature of attached, detached and forbidden actions.
