There is no problem if the other person pushes us but we have to make sure that we do not push the other person. Only then will we obtain the love of the other person!

The worldly life means a market place of sensual pleasures. Worldly life means false (temporary) happiness all the time. And moksha (liberation) means permanent happiness all the time.

Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that a quiet conscience makes one strong.

Give and ye shall receive.

My favorite works are the ones where I get to expose what is really behind the "brands."

No memory of having starred atones for later disregard, or keeps the end from being hard.
