PARUL TOLIYA
THINKING OF LATE KUM, PARUL TOLIYA Life is endless. What is death ? A gate to another life. To understand this is to be fearless. When we enter more and more into silence, our desires are gradually eliminated, purity is attained, and the body and the mind are satisfied. When perplexed by the problems of life, go into silence, you will find the solution in the sobriety of silence. Learn the secret of losing thyself. The secret of self-discipline is purity. Make others happy if you seek happiness. Wisdom is not wisdom when it is not humble. If the heart be dark, books can teach nothing. To desire is to suffer : desire does not give peace, it does not endure. The man of true humility remains away from competition. Humility is the key of truth. He lives well who thinks well. True simplicity is the secret of true beauty. Strive for harmony: Be compassionate to all creatures. Shun luxuries, shows, idle talk, vain arguements. Spend sometime in silence and meditation. Abandon incontinance.
