The waves of the mighty ocean that hit the shore repeatedly as if there is something to acquire there is like the minds of the worldly. No matter how many times it reaches the shore and recedes, it keeps coming back endlessly. The state of the Jnani though is like the mid-ocean - calm, still and unperturbed, always.

When we pray, we all seek God's pardon saying, "Please forgive me God, for the mistakes that I have done unknowingly".

 

But if we wish to be honest, we should pray "God! Please forgive me for all the mistakes that I have committed knowingly, on account of my sense of ego".

 

This would indeed be the right prayer!

I felt very inferior when looked at the big, broad world and realized that there so many things that I did not know. But when I realized that knowledge of the Self is the only thing that mattered, not anything else of the mundane world, I felt most superior

"Never once did I care for my physical body, till the day I met my Master.

External appearance does not make one a householder or a monk.

 

One whose mind wavers even a little is a householder indeed; and one whose mind rests in  dynamic silence is verily a true ascetic.
