Na tassa dukkham vibhayamti naio na mittavagga na suya na bandhava ekko sayam paccanuhoi dukkham kattatamevam anujai kammam. The kith and kin, friends, sons, and brothers cannot share the suffering of a person. He himself bears it. It is because karma always follows the doer.
From Acharya Mahashraman
Roj Ki Ek Salaah
No need to become afraid of darkness. Terrifying is not the real solution. The sheer need is to light a small lamp.

From Acharya Mahapragya
The Utility of Logic
To think of logic as philosophy is a mistake. Logic is only a tool to manage day- to -day living. It is essential. One of life's riddles is day- to -day behavior. In the art of institutionalization, institutions have to be maintained. There logic is also essential. Without logic, institutions cannot be managed. Logic is not without use. Anything viewed from the perspective of Anekantha cannot be called useless, false, or untruth. If a man was standing in court of justice and did not use logic would loose immediately. A court functions on the basis of logic. The judge upholds the stronger logic and awards the judgement thereby.
Excerpts from "ANEKANTA, THE THIRD EYE" By Acharya Mahaprajna
