- If you enter the water after smearing your body with turmeric, you need not fear the crocodiles. Discrimination and non-attachment are the turmeric.
- God alone is real and eternal. All else is unreal, transitory, lasting just a few days. One must realize this and develop love for God, attachment to God, devotion to Him.
- You attain discrimination only when dispassion comes to the mind. When you have attained discrimination, you begin to think of the truth.
- One needs the opportunity – the company of holy people, discrimination, finding a true preceptor.
- What use is mere learning without discrimination and dispassion? When I see that a pundit is without discrimination and has no love for God, he appears to me just like a dry piece of straw.
