“Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.” ― Ramana Maharshi
There are times when even after spending years on the face of earth you still feel naive with the realities of life. There is always so much to explore and understand, as it is hard to understand your true self let alone everyone or everything else around you.
“Behind every beautiful thing, there’s some kind of pain.” ―Bob Dylan
You hardly know anything about those whom you usually compare yourself with, so the comparisons you make are baseless. There is always a sad story behind every smiling face, it’s just that most people fail to see through the person and make their own assumptions.
You must make efforts to know your true self before you try to understand the mysteries of the universe.
