Joy in times of good fortune and sorrow in times of bad, mistaking the
pain of the body and the senses as one's own - such dual attitude and
feeling must be overcome! Step by step, the identification with
the body and the senses has to be given up. This is the sign of
one acquiring the very foundation of Jnana Yoga (the Path of Wisdom).
If you attain this stage, then eternal joy
and bliss will be yours, forever!
- Divine Discourse, Prasanthi Vahini.
