Shankaracharya Quotes
- "Loud speech, profusion of words, and possessing
skillfulness in expounding scriptures are merely for the enjoyment
of the learned. They do not lead to liberation."
- "[I am] the nature of Pure Consciousness. I am always the
same to beings, one alone; [I am] the highest Brahman, which, like
the sky, is all-pervading, imperishable, auspicious, uninterrupted,
undivided and devoid of action. I do not belong to anything since I
am free from attachment. [I am] the highest Brahman... ever-shining,
unborn, one alone, imperishable, stainless, all-pervading, and
nondual-That am I, and I am forever released."
- "The Shudra is not conceived of as a performer of Yajna or
Vedic sacrifice"
