| Ramayana |
| Power used without a leash can have dangerous repurcussions. A King has unlimited power in his hands. That is why he has to be very aware of his responsibilities. He must learn the value of humility to be able to wield his power wisely. |
 |
| Mahabharata |
| The greatest enemy is one with sweet words on the tongue and black hate in the heart. |
 |
| Upanishads |

| Universal Prayers - From Vedas |

 |
| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| A man caught in a current seeks the shore; a tired traveller, the shade of trees; one caught in rain his comfortable home; a man in quest of hospitality, a householder; a poverty-stricken person a charitable and wealthy man; a man in dense darkness, a lamp; and one exposed to cold, a well-fired hearth. In the same way, O my mind, seek the lotus feet of Siva - the feet that destroy all fears. |
 |
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
Foremost. Om varaya namah The manifest attributes of the Lord fade into insignificance compared to His Original State which is Prajnanam or Pure Consciousness. |
 |
| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
