| Ramayana |
| Love is a strange emotion. Apparently sensible people can become quiet irrational when in love. They do not consider any barriers of class, caste or religion. The only thing that matters is the satisfaction of their love. |
|
| Mahabharata |
| The poor man is generally discounted by all. |
|
| Upanishads |
| He is a fool who never allows another to speak. For he then remains ignorant of their knowledge. |

| Universal Prayers - From Vedas |
| Its form is not visible here - neither its end, nor origin, not its basis. Having cut down this firm-rooted tree by the mighty sword of non-attachment, that goal is to be sought after, attaining which the wise do not return again. I take refuge in that primeval Being, from whom streams forth the eternal creative Energy. |
|
| Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotram |
| Salutations to Him who is the indwelling Sprit sustaining the created universe conceived as the golden egg. |
|
| Sri Lalita Sahasranama |
Om asvarudh aashisthit asva - koti - kotibhir - avrtayai namah.
Salutations to Her who is surrounded by a cavalry of several crores of horses under the command of Asvarudha. |
|
| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| Lo! If the sun, who is but one, can penetrate through the circle of darkness filling heaven and earth (and become visible), canst Thou not, O Lord of beings, who art endowed with the brilliance of innumerable suns, reveal Thyself? Who knows how thick is the darkness covering me? Therefore, removing it in entirely, deign to reveal Thyself unto me! |
|
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
Bestower of boons. Om varadaya namah
Lord, let me not contaminate my mind by asking for any boon other than Your feet. |
|
| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
| Let the power of the Mother work in you, but be careful to avoid any mixture or substitution, in its place, of either a magnified ego-working or a force of Ignorance presenting itself as Truth. |
