So it will continue to 'discharge' by itself."

"In this life, you only need to do this much: You must know that the other person is instrument (nimit, in bringing you the results of your own karmas) so you must remain silent.

You have to do only this much! That is the effort [purusharth]!"

"The kashays (inner anger, pride, deceit and greed) that keep one entrenched in the coolness of the worldly life are the very thing that makes one wander life after life."
