It Is Raining And You Can Hear The Pattern Of The Drops. You Can Hear It With Your Ears, Or You Can Hear It Out Of That Deep Silence. If You Hear It With Complete Silence Of The Mind, Then The Beauty Of It Is Such That Cannot Be Put Into Words Or Onto Canvas, Because That Beauty Is Something Beyond Self-expression .

Through Self-knowledge You Begin To Find Out What Is God, What Is Truth, What Is That State Which Is Timeless. In Self-knowledge Is The Whole Universe; It Embraces All The Struggles Of Humanity.

The Ambitious Man Has Never Found His True Vocation.

We Carry About Us The Burden Of What Thousands Of People Have Said And The Memories Of All Our Misfortunes. To Abandon All That Is To Be Alone, And The Mind That Is Alone Is Not Only Innocent But Young -- Not In Time Or Age, But Young, Innocent, Alive At Whatever Age -- And Only Such A Mind Can See That Which Is Truth And That Which Is Not Measurable By Words.

As We Are Concerned With What Others Think Of Us, So We Are Anxious To Know All About Them; And From This Arise The Crude And Subtle Forms Of Snobbishness And The Worship Of Authority. Thus We Become More And More Externalized And Inwardly Empty. The More Externalized We Are, The More Sensations And Distractions There Must Be, And This Gives Rise To A Mind That Is Never Quiet, That Is Not Capable Of Deep Search And Discovery.
