Sankara's 'thousand teachings' on the distinction between the senses, mind, body, intellect, and the true Self. In translating as well as in drawing up the notes, the author has closely followed the authoritative commentary of Ramatirtha.
The less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are, the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do. When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.
-Swami Vivekananda
