About This Quote

The kashays (inner anger, pride, deceit and greed) that keep one entrenched in the coolness of the worldly life are the very thing that makes one wander life after life. What keeps us stuck in this world is our own anger, greed, deceit and pride. We don’t want to get out of our comfortable lives; we want to stay stuck in them. The more we succeed in keeping ourselves there, the more we feel entitled to stay there.

We know that if we got out of our lives completely, we would have to start all over again in a new place without any friends or family. The good thing about every moment in our lives is that it’s an opportunity for us to move forward.
