sayings from sacred texts

The purpose of every practice - spiritual practice, meditation, breathing techniques, and kriya, all this - is to uncover something that blocks the expression of Divine Love
--From Bhakti Sutras

If some guru has fallen, or done something, or says something and does something else -- it is his problem. We must have compassion towards it. That need not take us away from our spiritual path or our surrender
--From Bhakti Sutras

People who are suffering -- do not pity them. See, there is a difference between pity and compassion. In pitying, you are not pulling them up; you are making them even more down. Have compassion for people who are suffering, and not friendliness
--- Patanjali Yoga Sutras 
  
In fact, all those people who consider everybody else a fool and only they are intelligent, deep down they are really big fools. To avoid looking at their own foolishness they consider everybody else to be crazy or foolish
---Patanjali Yoga Sutras
