Guest guest Posted November 1, 2001 Report Share Posted November 1, 2001 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “How to come out of this [MAYA]? First of all, make sure you want to come out. Then make a resolute decision for yourself that you will allow no desire to creep into your mind. This is what Datta Purana advocates. If you fail to do this, you will be a victim of Maya, (as in fact, you already are.) Maya will toss you from pleasure to pain and from pain to pleasure, happiness to sadness and will subject you to so many kinds of opposites. Being tossed many times, man becomes heavily damaged and one day will be declared invalid. So make the decision for yourself now and here, while you have still not reached a point of no return. Once you cross this point, even repentence will add to your frustration."
