The awareness of Brahman (God) cannot be won by the accumulation of wealth or even by giving away of riches. Nor can it be achieved by reading texts, rising to power, acquiring degrees and diplomas, or performing scriptural sacrifices and rituals. The body is an anthill, with the mind inside the cavity. The mind has hidden in it, the serpent named ajnana (ignorance). This serpent cannot be killed by resorting to kamya karma (pleasurable activities). Jnana (spiritual wisdom) is the only weapon that can kill the serpent of ignorance.  That person alone who has faith can secure this spiritual wisdom.

I am with you, in you, behind you, above you, guarding and protecting you as the eyelid protects the eye.  - Baba
