| The greed for power can debase a person who otherwise has many noble qualities. It is like a cancer which grows away at the heart of sound qualities and makes them hollow. Guarding against this greed is a difficult task. |

| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| My prostration to Sambhu, the source of all happiness, whose existence precedes that of all, who is light limitless, who is revealed through the Vedic texts, who is attained through devotion; who is essentially of the nature of knowledge and bliss; who is engaged in the protection of the three worlds; who is the worthy object of meditation for all Yogis; who is praised with hymns by the celestials; who controls Maya; who whirls round and round in the performance of the beautiful Tandava dance; and who wears matted locks. |
|
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
| The All-round Form. Om maharupaya namah |
|
| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
| The right attitude is to be devoted and given to the Mother and to wish to be whatever she wants you to be. The rest is for the Mother to decide and do in you. |
