- Openness and simplicity doesn’t come without a great deal of austerity in previous births. A cunning and calculating person can’t realize God.
- Wherever God has incarnated Himself, there has been guilelessness? How simple was Dasharatha (father of Lord Rama)! Nanda Ghosh, Sri Krishna’s father, was free from guile.
- Unless you are simple at heart, you can’t have faith in God easily. God is very far from a person having a worldly intellect. A worldly intellect creates doubts, and different kinds of pride appear – the pride of learning, the pride of wealth, and so on.
