The search for reality is the most dangerous of all undertakings for it will destroy the world in which you live.
But if your motive is love of truth and life, you need not be afraid.
Learn to distinguish…the unchanging in the changing, till you realize that all differences are in appearance only and oneness is a fact.
Once you can say w/ confidence from direct experience: 'I am the world, the world is myself', you are free from desire & fear on one hand…
and become totally responsible for the world on the other.
Nothing is necessary, nothing is inevitable. Habit and passion blind and mislead. Compassionate awareness heals and redeems.
Love is not lazy & clarity directs. You need not worry about action, look after your mind & heart. Stupidity & selfishness are the only evil
To meet all the vicissitudes of life is penance enough! You need not invent trouble.
To meet cheerfully whatever life brings is all the austerity you need.
Share willingly and gladly all you have with whoever needs—don't invent self-inflicted cruelties.
Accept what comes.
Do nothing that may be unworthy of the glorious reality within your heart and you shall be happy and remain happy.
But you must seek the self and, having found it, stay with it.
Watch what happens to you. Don't ask others. Their man may not be your Guru. A Guru may be universal in essence, but not in his expressions.
All you have to do is to abandon all memories and expectations. Just keep yourself ready in utter nakedness and nothingness.
Just see the need of being abandoned. Don't resist, don't hold on to the person you take yourself to be.
Don't trust definitions and descriptions—they are grossly misleading.
By all means do feel lost! As long as you feel competent and confident, reality is beyond your reach.
Unless you accept inner adventure as a way of life, discovery will not come to you.
Be nothing, know nothing, have nothing. This is the only life worth living, the only happiness worth having.
You must find your own way. Unless you find it yourself it will not be your own way and will take you nowhere.
Earnestly live your truth as you have found it—act on the little you have understood.
It is earnestness that will take you through, not cleverness—your own or another's.
Knowing them to be superficial, give no value to your experiences, forget them as soon as they are over.
Above all you need inner peace—which demands harmony between the inner and the outer. Do what you believe in and believe in what you do.
