Do not bark at people

 
 
If others hate us, let us take to nama japa and avoid them (those who hurt us) ... Do not bark at people; do not be pugnacious. Bear with other’s reproach

If anyone talks ten words to us, let us answer with one word




If anyone talks ten words to us, let us answer with one word, if we reply at all. Do not battle with any ... Who is whose enemy? Do not say of anyone that he is your enemy. All are one and the same.

If another gets fortune or power




If another gets fortune or power, we cannot put up with it; we scandalize him. When he meets with a loss, we rejoice. But is this good?

Clouds and Sun keep on their happy course in all directions


The earth bears seeds. Clouds rain on them. The sun sends his rays, and makes them sprout. When these sprout earth, clouds and sun keep on their happy course in all directions. They neither exult at the growth nor deject at the destruction of the sprouts. You should be unaffected like these. If you are, when can sorrow come to you? Mukti (or liberation) is this absence of sorrow.

Who sows surely reaps it's fruits

 
 
Who sows surely reaps it's fruits, why should other suffer with anxiety?  
In field of action the body disintegrates, so never waste time in leisure.

The guru is like a charged monsoon cloud that happily rains eternal bliss on one and all

The guru is like a charged monsoon cloud that happily rains eternal bliss on one and all. And is such Bliss something to be stowed away and hoarded? No, indeed! It is to be enjoyed to the heart's content and shared with others.

It is happiness they always ask for.

If one meditates on Me



If one meditates on Me, repeats my name, sing my deeds and thus is transformed into Me, his karma is destroyed. I will stay by his side always.
