A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it.
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
The worthy person is grateful and mindful of benefits done to him. This gratitude, this mindfulness, is congenial to the best people.
Be mindful of your duty to God, and do good works; and again, be mindful of your duty, and believe; and once again: be mindful of your duty, and do right. God loves the doers of good.
Now you worship His Form, you repeat His name; ignoring His orders. Without practicing the discipline laid down by Rama to purify the mind, all else is mere show, empty rituals.
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways.
Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?
