The cause of tension is our non-acceptance of the present situation. 'Why is it like this and not like that?' When we learn to accept situations, we attain peace.

If we become disturbed by what people say, we have given them the control of our inside.

यदि हम लोगों की बातों से विचलित हो जाते हैं, तो इसका अर्थ है कि हमने अपने भीतर का नियंत्रण उन्हें सौंप दिया है।

The moment we renounce the fruits of our actions, we attain peace.

The behaviour of others is never in our control. If our peace is dependent on people's behaviour, it can be snatched away in a moment. We must learn to be peaceful by becoming equipoised in all circumstances.

Austerities lead to growth that is permanent. The strength and transformation they bring become our lasting assets.

तपस्या और त्याग से होने वाला आंतरिक विकास स्थायी होता है। उससे मिलने वाली शक्ति और आत्म-परिवर्तन हमारी स्थायी निधि बन जाते हैं।

External circumstances are not always in our control. If our peace is dependent on external circumstances it can be snatched away in a moment. We must learn to find peace by becoming equipoised in all circumstances.
