The realization of the identity of Atman is Brahmn and myself called Vidya or knowledge … The self (atman) identified the intellect (buddhi) due to avidya.

"

We want to give the impression that our thoughts and feelings correspond to the appearance of our actions. This is hypocrisy and false pretenses and is assumed by one who is ignorant.

SWAMI NITYASWARUPANANDA – "In the dark of night, a rope is mistaken for a snake. The rope is not really a snake, it has no reality other than the rope itself. In the same way This universe has no real existence. It is the self: the conscience and Supreme Bliss in this world who, through ignorance, is seen to exist. Consciousness is the substratum of the universe is eternally pure and simple. We are that consciousness. Therefore, we must cease to identify ourselves with the universe overlap, and so we should be happy "

SWAMI NITYASWARUPANANDA – "Liberation presupposes bondage, but the Self is still existent, still unborn, never free, it was never born, he has never been in bondage. The idea even the release is therefore a serious limitation to the seeker of wisdom, because it allows him to detect the true nature of Self. The truth The same applies to the release of death, the State in which the self is permanently separated from the body, but the idea of emancipation presupposes the truth of the body and servitude, and therefore • is directly contrary to the true nature of self.

Thus, the distinction between the individual aspects and absolute autonomy is ipso facto unreal. The Self is one. "

SWAMI NITYASWARUPANANDA – "The universe has no independent existence of the Self. What we see is that the projection of the mind.

This awareness is omnipresent reality. The consciousness of an individual is like space in a pot but awareness is omnipresent as the total space. Even when you call the space differently, you really can not separate the space-in-the-pot of the total space. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "Brahma blesses practitioners of tapas (austerities) with great intellectual power that can lead first denial and then Godrealisation, but can also become a corrupting force if the practitioner loses sight of the ultimate goal, the Immortal Self.

Swami Parthasarathy – "Each establishment has three causes – material, efficient and instrumental. Making a pot requires mud, and the potter's wheel potting, respectively. In the case of the creation of the manifest world, three causes are one: Brahman, Brahman itself used to create the world from itself. Thus, it is financially independent. The pluralistic world arises from the sea like bubbles. The bubbles are both separate and part of the ocean. They are manufactured by Ocean from home. If we understand that water is the bubble, we understand that water is ocean. If we understand the Divine Spirit (Atman) which is us, we understand the Divine Spirit (Brahman) which is the Universe. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "The Atman is overshadowed by three kinds of desire, depending on the personality of a person – Tamas, rajas and sattva. The sattva is the highest and be more subtle, nor the desire to realize the Self. When the fire is covered by smoke, we saw the flames and smoke. Even a factor external, like a passing wind, can take the smoke away and what remains is the pure flame. Rajasic personality is like a mirror covered with dust. The image God is unclear. External factors are not enough to remove dust. Selfhelp is also required. Tamasic desire is like the baby in the womb. As long as the baby in the womb, it is completely covered. Finally, it will come out, much patience is necessary. "

SWAMI Parthasarathy – "The desires of the mind are never satisfied and are compared to fire. Any quantity of fuel that we give to the fire will not meet. We can throw the whole house, all the countries around the world in fire and at no point will say, No thank you, I've had enough. Such is the nature of fire. This is the nature of desire. The more we give the more his appetite increases, higher and wider is its sweep. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "The face of truth" (Atman) is said to be "covered by a disk of gold because gold represents wealth. Wealth is the accumulation of material objects. Thus, when the student commands the sun to remove the gold record, it calls the Atman to undo the last vestige of the accumulated material world. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "The law of karma says that for each action is a reaction. As long as we have even a desire, we are still caught in the wheel of karma and be reborn in this world to try to satisfy this desire. We will again play in the Tri Cities of wakefulness, dream and deep sleep. The three cities are also known as the gross body, subtle and causal, which refer to the physical (waking), mind (the dream) and the unmanifested desires (deep sleep). "

Swami Parthasarathy – "The law of karma says that for every action there is a reaction. Driven by the flow of thoughts in one direction, which is a desire, an action is performed. The action taken with the desire, the desire for more of the same or something different arises. We were born because we finished our last life still caught in this chain of action and desire. As long as we have even a desire, we are again! caught in the wheel of karma and be reborn in this world to try to satisfy this desire. We will again play in the three cities of standby dream and deep sleep. "

You are divine in essence, no matter what you seem to be the god is at the heart of your personality Vedanta help deploy your divinity with the knowledge of your intrinsic self. With this knowledge, you live a life of perfect harmony, peace and happiness. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "When we go to temple, mosque or church to pray or chant, and we feel full of joy and purity, God allows us to feel this – but God is not that feeling. God can not be felt. What you feel is terrestrial. What you experience is transcendental? But we lost to idols. So many people come to worship idols, which represent the ideal God, as God incarnate. God is not the temple, church and mosque. God is not the statue of Rama or the crucifix or the Kabah. They are Only all the symbols. Even the sound Aum is a symbol. "

Swami Parthasarathy – "Wherever there is a reflecting surface Worldwide, there is a sun that is reflected. Even a dewdrop reflects the sun. Millions of reflective surfaces to produce millions of suns. Similarly, there are millions of reflexive forms but there is only one all-pervading entity which is Brahman. "

Krishna is the source of innumerable universes, which niayt be compared to a large wreath of lotus.

Krishna's navel is like a Lotus, it is crowned with lotus, and his eyes are also compared to the petals lotus. We can meditate on our life is so beautiful and wise Krishna, Krishna and how it manifests. A yogi is one who always thinks of Krishna.

Swami Prabhupada – "Narayana, the supreme person, residing outside and inside of every living entity. It is present in both spiritual and material worlds. Although it is far, far away, yet it is close to us. And because it is still committed in transcendental bliss, we can not understand how he enjoys his full opulence. We can not see or understand with the material sense. Therefore, Vedas say that to him to understand our mind, matter and the senses can not act. But he who has purified his mind and senses by the practice of Krishna consciousness in devotional service can always see, it is confirmed in the Brahma Samhita devotee who has developed love for Supreme God can see him constantly, without interruption. It can be seen and understood only by devotional service. "

Swami Prabhupada – "One should start the worship of Ganpati, which removes all obstacles."

He takes credit to do everything independently, and is a symptom of his nescience. It is factually bewildered by false ego, which makes him forget his eternal relationship with the Lord. "

SWAMI Prabhupada – "We give as much freedom as we deserve, but the abuse of that freedom is the cause of suffering. Eternal Kala offers both happiness and misery. As we moved miseries so that we may also experience happiness without being asked, all predestined by kala … Everyone suffers and appreciating the results of its own destiny. This destiny is made by the living beings in the course of social relations. Everyone creates his own destiny, under the supervision of the Lord Supreme. It is ubiquitous and therefore he can not see each other's activities. And because the Lord has no beginning or end, it is also known as eternal time, kala.

Swami Premananda – "spiritual discipline is nothing but summon the spirit Scattered who is unable to focus on the Absolute. Along with meditation and repetition of the name of the Lord, we should think deeply and carefully meditating or simply repeating the names of God, without any effort to eradicate desire, will not. "
