"Give up all longings. The most trifling desire pulls you down to your body consciousness and your Samadhi is lost; mind becomes unsettled, and all sorts of thoughts of separateness get into the mind and work havoc there. Remain always indifferent to your personal wants. Remain merged always in Ram, the giver of supreme peace."

"The mind sees through the eyes, hears through the ears, smells through the nose, tastes through the tongue and feels the touch through the body. When the mind is restless, these senses make it perceive diversity which brings pain and sorrow. When the mind is peaceful, these senses make it perceive oneness which brings joy and bliss. A restless mind is Maya. A peaceful mind is Ram. When the mind is filled with the one thought of peace or Ram, eyes see nothing but Ram, ears hear nothing but Ram, nose smells nothing but Ram, tongue tastes nothing but Ram, every touch of the body is nothing but Ram. Every thing, every being, affects the mind through the senses as Ram who is eternal peace and bliss."

"When you speak, be precise and bold. Let your speech be a "thinking aloud". Be in tune with the Infinite whenever you speak. Put yourself in this state in all actions, and words. Then you live in God."

"Don't do anything as duty. You are not bound even by duty. Do what God spontaneously makes you do. Remain unattached both to the action and its result."
