\"The whole world is your school. All are you. You are the commander. You are the Commander-in-Chief! All are commanders. There is no greater or lesser. All are God. God sees god, God talks to god.\"

\"If we put into practice the little we know, that is enough. We will come to know everything in that way. Meditate daily: \

I am Siva.\'\"'

\"If you are a king, will you have contentment? If you are a beggar, will you have contentment? Whatever your walk in life may be, you will only have contentment through knowing yourself by yourself.\"
