13 Those who prefer to swim in the waters of their ignorance, and to go down very low, need not exert the body or heart; they need only cease to move, and they will surely sink. Night is for the sleep of beings, day for the performance of their duty. 1 The glamour of Time conceals from the weak souls of men the dark abysses around them, the terrible and mighty laws which incessantly direct their lives. 13 Save not thy life at the expense of another's, as he will take two of thy lives in future births. 24 The pure soul is a river whose holy source is self-control, whose water is truth, whose bank is righteousness, whose waves are compassion.

13 There exists no spot on the earth, or in the sky, or in the sea, neither is there any in the mountain-clefts, where an evil deed does not bring trouble to the doer. 9 As the spider moving upward by his thread gains free space, thus also he who undertakes moving upward by the known word OM, gains independence. 8 He ho wishes to reach Buddhahood, and aspires to the knowledge of the Self-born, must honor those who keep this doctrine. 5 When trust is gone, misfortune comes in; when confidence is dead, revenge is born; and when treachery appears, all blessings fly away.

30 The Higher Self knows that highest home of Brahman, which contains all and shines so bright. The wise who without desiring happiness worship that SELF, are not born again. Live in the light diffused through the entire arc, and you will know it all. 21 If thou losest all, and gettest wisdom by it, thy loss is thy gain.
21 When desire is for the purely abstract — when it has lost all trace or tinge of "self" — then it has become pure. 20 The discovery and right use of the true essence of Being — this is the whole secret of life. 15 The great watchword of the True is this — in last analysis all things are divine. 12 Will is the offspring of the Divine, the God in man; Desire, the motive power of the animal life. 10 Self-knowledge is unattainable by what men usually call "self-analysis." It is not reached by reasoning or any brain-powers. 3 Neither is Theosophy the pursuit of happiness, as men understand the word; for the first step is sacrifice, the second, renunciation.
11 Though despised, one sleeps with comfort, with comfort awakes, with comfort lives in this world; but the scorner perisheth. 2 There is no death without sin, and no affliction without transgression. 30 The spirit it is, that, under the myriad illusions of life, works steadily towards its goal; silently, imperceptibly, irresistibly, moving on to divinity. 25 Our life is the ante-room of the palace where our true treasure lies — immortality.
24 Let the wise think on wisdom as unfading and immortal; let him fulfill his duty as though Death grasped him by the hair. 16 Youth is like a mountain-torrent; wealth is like the dust on one's feet; manhood is fugitive as a water-drop; life is like foam. 11 Real self-knowledge is the awakening to consciousness of the divine nature of man.
To the roar of the tempest, and not to the jackal's howl, the elephant trumpets a reply. 28 The man who finds pleasure in vice, and pain in virtue, is still a novice in both. 22 In this world, fugitive as tempest-driven waves, death for another is a rich prize earned by virtue in a former birth. 19 Who performs a right action, free from impurity, the house of that man is a forest hermitage. 18 Even in a forest hermitage, sin prevails over the unholy; the restraint of the senses in one's own house, this is asceticism.
26 When the weak-minded is deprived of wealth, his actions are destroyed, like rivulets dried up in hot seasons. The sandal tree has its roots sapped by snakes, its blossoms attacked by bees, its branches broken by monkeys, its top eaten by bears. 4 He who has been once deceived, dreads evil, and suspects it even in truth. 31 The heart of the fool is in his tongue; the tongue of the wise is in his heart.
22 Like moonbeams trembling on water, truly such is the life of mortals. 13 By the fall of water-drops the pitcher is gradually filled; this is the cause of wisdom, of virtue, and of wealth. 25 If evil be said of thee, and if it be true, correct thyself; if it be a lie, laugh at it.
25 The path of virtue lies in the renunciation of the seven great sins. 28 A narrow stomach may be filled to its satisfaction, but a narrow mind will never be satisfied, not even with all the riches of the world. 27 If wisdom were to vanish suddenly from the universe, no one yet would suspect himself a fool. 23 Not every one ready for a dispute is as quick in transacting business. 19 Narrowness of mind causes stubbornness; we do not easily believe what is beyond that which we see. 13 As rain does not break through a well-thatched house, passion will not break through a well-reflecting mind.
2 Theosophy is not the acquirement of powers, whether psychic or intellectual, though both are its servants. 30 Like as the night follows the day, so misfortune is the shadow of joy; Karma bestowing her lots with both hands. 27 True clemency is in foregoing revenge, when it is in one's power; true patience is in bearing up against disappointments.
9 The avaricious go not to the world of the gods (Devas), for the fool commands no charity. When thou hast cut down every tree and every shrub, then thou wilt be free. 5 Do not speak harshly to anybody; those who are so spoken to will answer thee in the same way.
