The sayings in this section have been collected from various sources like the Valmiki Ramayana, Adhyatma Ramayana and the Yoga Vasishtha Ramayana.
- Possessions and enjoyments are the root of all anxieties; far better is the cultivation of the equable temperament in seclusion unperturbed by any thought.
- The objects of sense enjoyment are the real poison, and not what is popularly known as poison. For the so-called poison destroys the body in one birth, while the poison of sense enjoyments hurts from birth to birth through a countless series of embodiments.
- The world is transitory, having not a grain of happiness in it. I do not desire death nor do I covet life; I have no eagerness for kingdom, wealth, enjoyments and desires, for I have relinquished egoism which is the root of all these.
- It is true that the world is apparently beautiful but in its true nature, it is very ugly. In this world, everything ends in sorrow. Nothing in this world can afford real peace to the mind.
