A solid rock is not disturbed by the wind; even so, a wise person is not agitated by praise or blame.
A yogi who perceives his real Self as separate from his active senses and their objects never becomes attached to anything. He is aware of the dream nature of the universe and watches it without being entangled in its complex but ephemeral nature.
The cycle of God, the good, is broken by a single act of negativity. The cycle of negativity is stopped by choosing the good.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
Rain down your wisdom in sacred streams to carry me like an upturned leaf through the currents of this grey day.
