| Ramayana |
| Restlessness and contentment cannot do hand in hand. The ambitious man is restless. He seeks success here, there, everywhere. The contended man looks into his own heart and finds total peace. |
|
| Mahabharata |
| The enemy is prosperity causes heart-burn to the jealous. |
|
| Upanishads |
| But the senses are blind inwards. So Man cannot see the Spirit with his senses and thinks that it does not exist. |
|
| Hinduism |
| If your repentance be genuine like the spring that gushes from the bowels of the earth, your sins are decimated. |

| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| O great Soul! Thou source of all good! Pray, tell how didst Thou look at that poison (Kalakuta), flaming fiercely like fire, so terrifying to all the immortal celestials even? And how didst Thou take it and hold it in hand? Was it a ripe Jambu fruit to handle? How, again, didst Thou place it on the tongue like a medicinal pill of the Siddhas; and how, wear it in the throat like a blue gem? |
|
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
Om saravangaya namah
Salutation to Him who has the entire universe as His limb. |

| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
