| Ramayana |
| Time can bring about great changes. It may make a person hate what he loved before. Or love what he disliked previously. Yet the arrogant man finds it very difficult to acknowledge that he was wrong because his pride does not let him do so. |

| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| Worldly life is full of evil desires; it involves servility to wicked masters; it is disastrous in the end; it is a source of sin, and productive of painful experiences. Say, why, and for whose benefit, dost Thou not remedy this misery of mine? O Lord! If it, however, contributes to Thy joy, we are, indeed, satisfied. |
