The general must know the weak links in his army and weed them out ruthlessly. He should know that the enemy is also searching for these weak links and will try to break him through them.
Mahabharata
The greatest enemy is one with sweet words on the tongue and black hate in the heart.
Upanishads
The Great Consciousness is the final refuge of all
Hinduism
Drink water for it sustains life.
Universal Prayers - From Vedas
O Lord, I seek the shelter of Thy lotus feet which Yogins ever meditate upon and which verily sever all shackles that bind man to earth. Do Thou show unto me the way by which I may truly cross this shoreless ocean of ignorance with ease.
Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotram
Salutations to Him who is superior to everything that exists.
Sri Lalita Sahasranama
Om laksya - roma - lata - dharata - samunneya - madhyamayai namah. Salutations to Her who has a waist so slender that it can only be inferred as a base for the creeper of fine hair springing from her naval upwards.
Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya
Siva the Lord of all - the tranquil and the gracious, the bestower of endless rewards - can be freely worshipped within the heart and outside. For He, my Lord, the King of Kings, dwells within my heart and also transcends the worlds.
Siva Sahasranama Stotram
Innately Excellent. Om svayam sreshthaya namah.
Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry)
The right attitude is to be devoted and given to the Mother and to wish to be whatever she wants you to be. The rest is for the Mother to decide and do in you.
