Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 'Swami's Quotations on Dharma " 1. One must be always vigilant, without a moment's carelessness, against the eight sins that the mind perpetrates: 1. Kamam or craving 2. Krodham or anger 3. Lobham or greed 4. Moham or attachment 5. Impatience 6. Hatred 7. Egoism 8. Pride Man's primary duty is to keep all these things at a safe distance from himself. 2. Man's mind speeds fast, pursuing wrong actions. Without letting it hurry like that remember the name of the Lord at that time or attempt to do some good deed or other. Those who do this will certainly become fit for the Lord's grace. 3. First give up the evil tendency to feel envious at the prosperity of others and the desire to harm them. Be happy that others are happy. Sympathise with those who are in adversity and wish for their prosperity. That is the means of cultivating love for God. 4. Patience is all the strength that man needs. 5. Those anxious to live in joy must always be doing good. 6. It is easy to conquer anger through love, attachment through reasoning, falsehood through truth., bad through good and greed through charity. 7. No reply should be given to the words of the wicked. Be at a great distance from them; that is for your good. Break off all relations with such people. 8. Seek the company of good men, even at the sacrifice of your honour and life. But be praying to God to bless you with the discrimination needed to distinguish between the good and men and the bad. You must aso edeavour, with the intellect given to you. 9. Those who conquer states and earn fame in the world are hailed as heroes, no doubt; but those who have conquered the senses are heroes who must be acclaimed as the conquerors of the Universal. 10. Whatever acts as good or bad may do, the fruits thereof follow him and will never stop pursuing him. 11. Greed yields only sorrow; contentment is best. There is no happiness greater than contentment.
