Ashtavakra Gita

Sage Ashtavakra said,

• The straightforward person does whatever presents itself to be done, good or bad, for his actions are like those of a child.
• By inner freedom one attains happiness, by inner freedom one reaches the Supreme, by inner freedom one comes to absence of thought, by inner freedom to the Ultimate State.
• When one sees oneself as neither the doer nor the reaper of the consequences, then all mind waves comes to an end.
• The spontaneous unassumed behavior of the wise is noteworthy, but not the deliberate purposeful stillness of the fool.
• The wise who are rid of imagination, unbound and with unfettered may enjoy themselves in the midst of many goods, or alternatively go off to mountain caves.
