Bhagvad Gita Quotes

What did you produce, which you think got destroyed? You did not bring anything, whatever you have, you received from here. Whatever you have given, you have given only here. Whatever you took, you took from God. Whatever you gave, you gave it to Him. You came empty handed,  You will leave empty handed.

Bhagvad Gita Quotes - Guru

The Guru' s form is the root of meditation, the Guru's feet are the root of worship, the Guru's word is the root of Mantra, the Guru's Grace is the root of liberation.   Guru is the creator(Brahma); Guru is the preserver (Vishnu); Guru is the destroyer (Maheshwara); Guru is verily the Supreme Absolute. To that Guru we prostrate.

A masterpiece by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,  And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. -Robert Frost
