As the heat of a fire reduces wood to ashes, the fire of knowledge burns to ashes all karma. Nothing in this world purifies like spiritual wisdom. It is the perfection achieved in time through the path of yoga, the path which leads to the Self within.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita
The language of excitement is at best picturesque merely. You must be calm before you can utter oracles.

"There is nothing like a vice or a virtue" and it has been said many a times in the
Bhagavad Gita by Krishna himself. Then why do these saints keep frightening
us everyday by reading out the long list of vices?
-Deep Trivedi
In a child's brain, nothing like good - bad, mine - yours or vice - virtue exist. By

cannot take spicy or fried food, for that too it needs to be trained.
-Deep Trivedi
When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. When our community is in a state of peace, it can share that peace with neighbouring communities
-Dalai Lama Xiv
