Swami Rama Tirtha
- Have God or Mammon
O people of America and the whole world! The Truth is that you can not serve God and Mammon. You can not serve two masters. You can not enjoy this world and also realize Truth. You can not enter into petty low, worldly, carnal, sensuous desires and at the same time lay claim to Divine Realization. O dear people! You can never love anything so long as you perceive ugliness. Love means perception of beauty. Fighting with darkness will not remove it. Bring the light in and the darkness is over.
Swami Rama Tirtha
Friends and relations ought to be transparent to us, they should not be like veils and blinds. They should be as glass-pans obstructing no light, nay, they should be like spectacles and microscopes or telescopes, help and not hindrances.
Swami Rama Tirtha
- Strange
It is very strange, very strange, that people want to rob each other, as for worldly wealth, but as for higher wealth (spiritual religious riches), when they are presented with it, they want to kill their donors.
