| Ramayana |
| A man who has been beaten at a task does not take kindly to another who appears able to handle it. He does not like another to accomplish what he has failed at. So he mocks at the other in an effort to diminish hi self confidence. |

| As you see others, so they see you. |
 |
| Upanishads |
| You will surely see Him when you surrender you ego and not before. |

 |
| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| "This man will be born. He will have a very hard heart. I must, however, dance upon it" - it must be with such thoughts about effecting my salvation that Thou didst formerly accustom Thy tender feet to tread on the mountain ridges. Otherwise, O Lord, why dance on stony surfaces, when there are such places as heavenly mansions, flower-beds and pedestals? |
 |
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
The Worthy of union. Om yojyaya namah Siva is the goal of Yoga. |
 |
| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
| Lord, the year is dying and our gratitude bows down to Thee. Lord, the year is reborn, our prayer rises up to Thee. Let it be for us also the dawn of a new life. |
