Hindu Wisdom: Fruit of Wisdom

Hindu Quotes: Fruit of Wisdom

The man who is happy and pure

And likes his own company

Gathers the fruit of his practice

And the fruit of wisdom.

The man who knows the truth

Is never unhappy in the world.

For he alone fills the universe.

Just as the elephant loves

The leaves of the sallaki tree,

But not the neem tree,

So the man who loves himself

Always spurns the senses.

Hindu Quotes: His Face is Everywhere

May the Lord of Love, who projects himself

Into this universe of myriad forms,

From whom all beings come and to whom all

Return, grant us the grace of wisdom.

And the stars. He is the air and the sea,

And the Creator, Prajapati.

He is this boy, he is that girl, he is

This man, he is that woman, and he is

This old man, too, tottering on his staff.

His face is everywhere.

Flowing around a pot

And filling it,

So God is everywhere,

Filling all things

And flowing through them forever.

The true seeker feels no elation,

Even in that exalted state

By right or wrong,

As the sky is not smudged by smoke.

- Ashtavakra Gita 4: 2-3
