The poems and utterances of an illumined soul. They are tender cries of yearning; yet however profound the longing, there is always at the heart of it the certainty of God.
Desire, want, is the father of all misery. Desires are bound by the laws of success and failure. Desires must bring misery. The great secret of true success, of true happiness, is this: the person who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish person, is the most successful.
-Swami Vivekananda
