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 faith of every man, O Arjuna, accords with his nature, Man is made up of faith; as is his faith, so is he. The threefold austerity practiced with faith by men of balanced mind, without any expectation of reward, is said to be pure.
