Guest guest Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 The steadfast man in whose eyes pleausre and pain, friend and enemy, honour and dishonour are all the same is a Knower of Brahman. He, who entertains no thought of 'I' and 'mine', has no feeling of pleasure and pain, and is not affected by pleasure and pain is a Mahatma. He alone sees truly who sees the eternal, unattached, pure, wise and free Self in every creature and everything. Whether he lives in meditation or engages himself in action, it is all the same. Since he sees everything homogeneous, he cannot fall from the state of Supreme Peace. A Sanyasin cannot afford to be idle, his life must serve as an ideal to all mankind. The true Knowers of Brahman alone do imperishable good to mankind by teaching them the Supreme Truth that finally emancipates them from Earthly sorrow.
