WITNESS ART THOU

Posted by Teachings of Swami Sivananda on May 15, 2012 at 7:00pm

Virtue and vice, pleasure and pain, are of the mind. Neither the doer nor the enjoyer art thou. Indeed, thou art ever free.
In the Gita you will find: "All actions are wrought by the qualities of nature only. The self-deluded man, through egoism, thinketh: "I am the doer." But he who knoweth the essence of the divisions of the qualities and functions, holding that the qualities move amidst the qualities, is not attached."

From "Daily Sayings" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
