The Spirit of the Upanishads1532
discontent and sorrow, oh Lord! take me to the other side of this ocean of
misery.
Chhandogyopanishad.
This Real Self should be explained by the father to his eldest son, or by the
teacher to a properly sympathetic pupil, and to no one else.
Chhandogyopanishad.
Oh Rama! the cause of Self-Realization is none other than the pupil’s own
intelligence.
Yogavasishtha.
One course leads to success in one birth or many, by gradual practice after
the manner pointed out by the teacher; the other leads soon to real Spiritual
Consciousness through the Self, aided even by intellectual development,
even like the fall of the fruit from above.
Yogavasishtha.
Having supported Self by Self, of one’s own accord, through reflection, one
should carry this deer—his own mind across the ocean of delusion, this
world.
Yogavasishtha.
Tell me what thou seest as other than religion and nonreligion, other than
these effects or their causes, other than that which is past and that which is
yet to come.
Kathopanishad.
