Desire can certainly be conquered, before the shock of death shall us assail. "All is truth"-as that word the sage has spoken gradually ripens in your heart, You will come to have direct perception and with cleared mind will mukti's bliss attain. There is no doubt about this whatsoever. All things are the action of the Lord. In the cave of your heart by day and night extol Him, repeating-"Om Tat Sat". Those hearts, which ever dwell on Him in homage, are the holy temple where the Lord abides. Sitting, lying, walking-we will not cease from praise and worship. Virtue and vice are both imagination, for we are that which neither comes nor goes. Know this through Grace alone; on intellect do not depend. Coming to take birth and living in this world is itself a great illusion. This great ascetics know-not others; so to that impart not importance. We can live for countless ages! Of nothing need you be afraid; But, moving as you please, be ever giving praise. Om Tat Sat! The joy of rearing Siva in our heart is now reality. The concept of a separate God henceforth is dead and gone. Of the vainly roaming mind we will be master, nor will we travel by the senses' path. We will fully know the Atma, as the Truth that nothing can destroy. We will go the way of tapas and, heeding the guru's word, the Self itself will come to realize. Peace, patience and the good work that befits us will always be for us our ornaments. Liking and disliking have both fled into hiding. In nothing are we lacking! All is truth! Repeat each day-"Om Tat Sat Om"! 4.) RESTRICTIONS & LICENSE AGREEMENT Please read the entire agreement before using these images! An Explanation of the License Agreement The license agreement, though broad, does have limits and it is important for you to know them. In order to lessen the confusion that is often present when using copyrighted artwork, the following provides an explanation of the license agreement. It is important to us that you not only enjoy these images for your own projects, but that you can profit by using them. You may use the images for in-house or outside clients, under the following guidelines: 1.) When charging clients for work using our images, the image(s) must be used as part of a larger production, as a background or in conjunction with text and graphics. It cannot be charged for by itself. 2.) When distributing (selling or giving away to ashrams or other dharma institutions) a product (sample packages, books, printed matter, animations, videos, etc.) that contains one or more images found in this package, its chief value must not lie in our artwork. These guidelines apply even if the files have been significantly altered. We have no objection to extensive use of the Aums for religious and dharmic purposes, but when the project becomes commercial, strict rules apply. Example of Misuse: The image is printed as the illustration on the front of a greeting card. It is then sold to a stationery company for retail distribution (the value of the card comes largely from the front cover illustration). Below are other examples of misuse that would fit into this category (this is not meant to be a complete list, so please call us if you are in doubt) Fabric, T-shirts, wallpaper, calendars for resale, when included in other clip art collections for resale, when distributed as digital media in a user-accessible format, fine art images, whether used alone or as part of an image intended for resale, as patterned paper stock to be re-sold as stationery or related products, as decorative patterns on other material or objects where the use of thepattern vastly increases the value of the object (i.e., ceramic tiles, fabric goods, electrical faceplates, notebooks, etc.), video games with extensive use of the backgrounds Examples of Proper Use: The image is used as a background for the front cover of a magazine which will have retail distribution in bookstores (the value of the magazine comes from its contents, not the art on the cover). Other examples of proper use include: Courses on Hinduism or aspects of Indian spirituality, religious posters, pamphlets, magazines, multimedia projects, videos, book covers, letterheads, business cards, book end papers, ads, brochures, manuals, banners, custom invitations, product packaging, signs, annual reports, video presentations, kiosks, slide presentations, product demos, interactive display.

Please read the "readme.txt" file in that folder for special permission and how to acquire that group of aums. These lovely photos, taken in India, are owned by the publisher who sells a poster containing them.
