“The Liberated Are Those Who Are Not Attached to Either ‘Lust’ or ‘Gold’” | 4 Tahoe Retreat 2014 | Swami Tattwamayananda

From the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
-“The Ever-Free, like Narada, the Holy Sage, are those who abide in the world for the sake of others – in order to teach the Truth to others.”
-“The Worldly are they who are attached to the little things of this world – money, honours, titles, sense pleasures and power. They forget God and never give a thought to Him.”
-“The Seekers After Liberation do their best to avoid the world, made up as it is of ‘Lust and Gold.’ But it is given to only a few amongst them to find what they seek, namely, Liberation.”
-“The Liberated are those who are not attached to either ‘Lust’ or to ‘Gold.’ Holy men are examples of these. In their minds there is not a trace of attachment to the things of this world. They meditate always on the Hallowed Feet of the Lord.”
