Righteousness?

“It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection.”

“A gift is pure when it is given from the heart to the right person at the right time and at the right place, and when we expect nothing in return”

“The power of God is with you at all times; through the activities of mind, senses, breathing, and emotions; and is constantly doing all the work using you as a mere instrument.”

“Anyone who is steady in his determination for the advanced stage of spiritual realization and can equally tolerate the onslaughts of distress and happiness is certainly a person eligible for liberation.”

“Curving back within myself I create again and again.”

“No one who does good work will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come”

“Hell has three hates: lust, anger and greed.”

“Perform all thy actions with mind concentrated on the Divine, renouncing attachment and looking upon success and failure with an equal eye. Spirituality implies equanimity. "

“The immature think that knowledge and action are different, but the wise see them as the same.”

“The peace of God is with them whose mind and soul are in harmony, who are free from desire and wrath, who know their own soul.”

“The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.”

“I enter into each planet, and by My energy they stay in orbit. I become the moon and thereby supply the juice of life to all vegetables.”

"Time [death] I am, the destroyer of the worlds, who has come to annihilate everyone. Even without your taking part all those arrayed in the [two] opposing ranks will be slain!”

“They say that life is an accident, driven by sexual desire, that the universe has no moral order, no truth, no God."

“The nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons.They arise from sense perception,and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.”

“The embodied soul is eternal in existence, indestructible, and infinite, only the material body is factually perishable."

“For the senses wander, and when one lets the mind follow them, it carries wisdom away like a windblown ship on the waters.”

Love or hate God. Whichever. Do it strong and immense.

War is destructive. One only loses in war, gains nothing.

Always trust the minister, who criticises you.

Things that are bad for you seduce you easily; you run towards them impatiently. But things that are actually good for you, fail to attract you; you shun them creatively, finding powerful excuses to justify your procrastination.

Knowledge about detachment is nothing without practice. You'll be slain.

Thank you :)
