GEMS OF SATSANG - 100 QUOTES
61 A gentleman is only he who is engaged in the welfare of others.
62 Only beauty of good character is true beauty.
63 To consider money as greatest of all is the sign of a deluded intellect.
64 If remembering something, then let it be remembrance of God. If doing some work, then let it be selfless service
65 For righteousness (dharma), one does not need money, one needs the right mind-set.
66 Man is not made a slave by things, rather it's desire makes him a slave.
67 The proper use of this body is only in serving the world.
68 God though being all capable, is incapable of distancing Himself from us.
69 If you want peace, give up desires.
70 Desire to take anything can cause terrible suffering.
71 Those who progress spiritually, they naturally progress in worldly matters as well.
72 World is not trustworthy, rather it is only worthy of serving.
73 Acceptance of the truth, it man's duty.
74 Knowledge leads to freedom, but pride of knowledge leads one to hell.
75 Trusting the ever-changing world, does not permit one to have trust in God.
76 A bhogi (enjoyer of sense pleasures) is not a "yogi" (united with divinity), rather he is a "rogi" (diseased man).
77 On having the sentiments of the presence of divinity in all, it wipes out all agitations of the mind.
78 A devotee is a rarity, not Bhagavan (God).
79 Think about this! Will this day remain as-is forever?
80 God is ours, but the things acquired by us are not ours, rather they are God's.
