Sage Ashtavakra said,
- Those of weak intelligence think of themselves as pure nonduality, but because of their delusion do not know this, and remain unfulfilled all their lives.
- The mind of the man seeking liberation can find no resting place within, but the mind of the liberated man is always free from desire by the very fact of being without a resting place.
- Seeing the tigers of the senses the frightened refuge-seekers at once enter the cave in search of cessation of thought and one-pointedness.
- Seeing the desireless lion, the elephants of the senses, silently run away, or, if they cannot, serve him like flatterers.
- The man who is free from doubts and whose mind is free does not bother about means of liberation. Whether seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling or tasting, he lives at ease.
- He whose mind is pure and undistracted from the simple hearing of the Truth sees neither something to do nor something to avoid nor a cause for indifference.
