He was an eminent philosopher. The Gita has been translated into Marathi language by him with the title Geetai (meaning 'Mother Gīta' in Marathi). |
If we could only snap the fetters of the body that bind the feet of the soul, we shall experience a great joy. Then we shall not be miserable because of the body's sufferings. We shall become free.
It is a curious phenomena that God has made the hearts of the poor, rich and those of the rich, poor.
If a man achieves victory over this body, who in the world can exercise power over him? He who rules himself rules over the whole world.
