Indian Thoughts- Dr Alok Pande

Savitri to Yama: I am greater than you for you are limited by time while I am the unborn eternal. So you have to give what I ask of you.
So when one knows one's truth, death is powerless.
All life is an experience directed towards the blossoming of the seed of truth, inherent in us.
Pain is not the result of an evil deed.Pain is the instrument of an evolving apparatus.
The body is an act of the soul, an instrument of the soul.
Man holds within himself, not a chained beast, but an imprisoned God.
Maya is not evil. She measures out the immeasurable in measurable bits for us to grow.

Heard this yesterday, at a marvelous talk on Indian thought by Dr. Alok Pande
