Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
No matter what country or culture you’re from, you always believe in friendship, you always believe in human values, and you always believe in peace.
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship… To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.
Why impress false religion on the world? It will be of no service to it. Why run about for the sake of wealth? You cannot escape from death… Think, O think, you thoughtless fool, you shall have in the end to depart alone.
This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
