Quotes



 * It is far different from what's known.
 * And it is farther than the unknown—
 * so have we heard from men of old,
 * who have explained it all to us.

 * Which one cannot grasp with one's mind,
 * by which, they say, the mind itself is grasped—
 * Learn that that alone is brahman,
 * and not what they here venerate.
 * 1.6
