Life happens from within you. If the source of life is the highest authority for your life, opinions of praise and derision will not matter.

If you are really concerned about everyone’s wellbeing, you do not have to worry about your survival – the world will take care of you.

If you bring perfect order into everything, it will make life very easy, but the spark in life will be gone.  

To make something a part of yourself, you have to shed a part of yourself.

Without the necessary energy, being aware is extremely difficult. That's why sadhana - to stir up the energy.
