Quotations
Srimad Bhagavad Gita
This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
The true nature of action is very difficult to understand. Therefore, one should know the nature of attached, detached and forbidden actions.
By this attitude of complete renunciation you shall be freed from bondage, good and bad, of karma. You shall be liberated, and come to Me.

He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
