One Cannot Be Spiritual As Long As

Unalloyed Love Of God Is The Essential Thing. All Else Is Unreal.

As A Toy Fruit Or A Toy Elephant Reminds One Of The Real Fruit And The Living Animal, So Do The Images That Are Worshipped Remind One Of The God Who Is Formless And Eternal.

What Brahman Is Cannot Be Described. All Things In The World — The Vedas, The Puranas, The Tantras, The Six Systems Of Philosophy — Have Been Defiled, Like Food That Has Been Touched By The Tongue, For They Have Been Read Or Uttered By The Tongue. Only One Thing Has Not Been Defiled In This Way, And That Is Brahman. No One Has Ever Been Able To Say What Brahman Is.

The World Is Impermanent. One Should Constantly Remember Death.

As A Boy Holding To A Post Or A Pillar Whirls About It With Headlong Speed Without Any Fear Or Falling, So Perform Your Worldly Duties, Fixing Your Hold Firmly Upon God, And You Will Be Free From Danger.
