Nothing liberates but the golden chains of Truth

Nothing liberates but the golden chains of Truth—this is the ultimate secret of life, the last refuge, the raison d’etre of human existence. Dispersal of ego-centric thoughts shields you from the world of clashes—clashes of Time against the Timeless. “Joy in the word, charity to all beings, service unto those that live in the Lord—these are the consummation of duties, oh Sanatana”: a holy text that might be every man’s rosary. Transient are the joys and sorrows of this world. Forgive and you will have charity ; renounce and you will enter the innermost shrine of Truth; be pure and you will be upheld and sustained. Fortitude and indifference are protection against unrest and impurity. Engrossment in the impermanent pleasures of the senses exhausts itself into sorrow, leaving you high and dry with naught of joy—joy that is Truth leading on to Salvation. Waste not therefore the acquired merit of life by stupefying yourself with the pleasures of this world.
