Strana 25 - Never the spirit was born ; the spirit shall cease to be never ; Never was time it was not ; End and Beginning are dreams ! Birthless and deathless and changeless remaineth the spirit for ever ; Death hath not touched it at all, dead though the house of it seems...
Strana 65 - Religion is not his who too much fasts Or too much feasts, nor his who sleeps away An idle mind ; nor his who wears to waste His strength in vigils. Nay, Arjuna ! call That the true piety which most removes Earth-aches and ills, where one is moderate In eating and in resting, and in sport ; Measured in wish and act ; sleeping betimes, Waking betimes for duty.
Strana 64 - Yukta, glad With joy of light and truth ; dwelling apart Upon a peak, with senses subjugate Whereto the clod, the rock, the glistering gold Show all as one. By this sign is he known Being of equal grace to comrades, friends, Chance-comers, strangers, lovers, enemies, Aliens and kinsmen; loving all alike, Evil or good. Sequestered should he sit, Steadfastly meditating, solitary, His thoughts controlled, his passions laid away, Quit of belongings.
Strana 43 - Yet tell me, Teacher ! by what force doth man Go to his ill, unwilling; as if one Pushed him that evil path? KRISHNA: Kama it is! Passion it is ! born of the Darknesses, Which pusheth him. Mighty of appetite, Sinful, and strong is this ! — man's enemy ! As smoke blots the white fire, as clinging rust Mars the bright mirror, as the womb surrounds The babe unborn, so is the world of things Foiled, soiled, enclosed in this desire of flesh. The wise fall, caught in it ; the unresting foe It is of wisdom,...
Strana 92 - Whoso shall offer Me in faith and love A leaf, a flower, a fruit, water poured forth, That offering I accept, lovingly made With pious will. Whate'er thou doest, Prince! Eating or sacrificing, giving gifts, Praying or fasting, let it all be done For Me, as Mine. So shalt thou free thyself From...
Strana 33 - He, who to none and nowhere overbound By ties of flesh, takes evil things and good Neither desponding nor exulting, such Bears wisdom's plainest mark! He who shall draw, As the wise tortoise draws its four feet safe Under its shield, his five frail senses back Under the spirit's buckler from the world Which else assails them, such an one, my Prince! Hath wisdom's mark! Things that solicit sense Hold off from the self-governed; nay, it comes, The appetites of him who lives beyond Depart, - aroused...
Strana 99 - Gods! King of the Universe ! To Thee alone Belongs to tell the heavenly excellence Of those perfections wherewith Thou dost fill These worlds of Thine; Pervading, Immanent! How shall I learn, Supremest Mystery! To know Thee, though I muse continually? Under what form of Thine unnumbered forms Mayst Thou be grasped? Ah! yet again recount, Clear and complete, Thy great appearances, The secrets of Thy Majesty and Might, Thou High Delight of Men ! Never enough Can mine ears drink the Amrit l of such...
Strana 35 - Shows wisdom perfect. What is midnight-gloom To unenlightened souls shines wakeful day To his clear gaze; what seems as wakeful day Is known for night, thick night of ignorance, To his true-seeing eyes. Such is the Saint ! And like the ocean, day by day receiving Floods from all lands, which never overflows ; Its boundary-line not leaping, and not leaving, Fed by the rivers, but unswelled by those ; — So is the perfect one ! to his soul's ocean The world of sense pours streams of witchery; They...
