*WORDS OF WISDOM* - One can revel in this phenomenal world, after smearing oneself, with the oil of 'BHAKTHI' (ATHMA NIVEDANA), 'NJNANA' (SELF-KNOWLEDGE) and 'VAIRAGYA' (DISPASSION). Then one can dwell 'IN' this world, without ever being 'OF' the world~ Swaathmaaraaman

"If you first smear the palms of your hands with oil and then break open the jack-fruit, the sticky milky exudation of the fruit will not stick to your hands and trouble you. So if you first fortify yourself with the true knowledge of the Universal Self, and then live in the midst of wealth and women, they will affect you in no way.
