The great, unborn Self is undecaying, immortal, undying, fearless, infinite.
Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the real you sleeping in your heart.
Fight with yourself, why fight with external foes? He, who overcomes self will obtain happiness.
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.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
That the birds of worry and care fly over your head, this you cannot change, but that they build nests in your hair, this you can prevent.
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.
Internally I am a hermit, and externally I am a prince. Arms mean protection to the poor and destruction of the tyrant. Baba Nanak had not renounced the world but had renounced maya, that is, self and ego.
