Quotations

Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

-John Geddes
"A Familiar Rain"
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
-Deep Trivedi
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
