Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Can the world exist without one to cognise it? Which comes first the being-consciousness or the rising-consciousness? The former is always there and eternal; the latter rises and disappears. It is transient.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
