Ponder

over all the things for which you have cried so far. You will find that

you have craved only for paltry things, for momentary distinctions, for

fleeting fame. Instead, you should cry only for God, for your own

cleansing and consummation. You should weep, for the six cobras that

have sheltered themselves in your mind, poisoning it with their venom:

Lust, anger, greed, attachment, pride and malice. Quieten them as the

snake charmer does with his swaying flute. The music that can tame them

is the Name of God. Thereafter, they become playthings; you can handle

them as you please. When these are laid low, you will gain equanimity

and you will remain unaffected by honour or dishonour, profit or loss,

joy or grief.

 

- BABA
