Be not a beggar - be Unattached

We are all beggars. Whatever we do, we want a return.We are all traders in life, we are traders in virtue, we are traders in religion. And alas! we are also traders in love.

The beggar is never happy. He never really enjoys what he gets.

We get misery in return for our love; not from the fact that we love, but from the fact that we want love in return. There is no misery where there is no want. Desire, Want, is the father of all misery. Desires are bound by the laws of success and failure. hence Desires bring misery.

The great Secret of true Happiness, then, is : 

the man who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish man, is the most successful in being Happy !

Are You a machine for taking and giving ?? you take, in order to give. Ask, therefore, nothing in return; but the more you give, the more will come to you. Give what you have to give; it will come back to you — but do not think of that now, it will come back multiplied a thousandfold .Have the power to give: give, and there it ends

The quicker you can empty the air out of this room, the quicker it will be filled up by the external air; and if you close all the doors and every aperture, that which is within will remain, but that which is outside will never come in, and that which is within will stagnate, degenerate, and become poisoned. A river is continually emptying itself into the ocean and is continually filling up again. Bar not the exit into the ocean. The moment you do that, death seizes you.

We must learn that nothing can happen to us, unless we make ourselves susceptible to it. No disease can come to me until the body is ready; it does not depend alone on the germs, but upon a certain predisposition which is already in the body.

 "I have no control of the external world, but that which is in me and nearer unto me, my own world, is in my control. If the two together are required to make a failure, if the two together are necessary to give me a blow, I will not contribute the one which is in my keeping; and how then can the blow come? If I get real control of myself, the blow will never come."
