“If your son has grown up and talks back at you, realize that he is your ‘thermometer’ (gauge). Where can you get a ‘thermometer’ to gauge how much dharma (virtues) has resulted within you? When you have a ‘thermometer’ at home, you do not have to go out”

“A father will not keep looking for faults in his children if he is very religious/pious. One should not see faults in a prakruti (relative self).

“What is saiyam? It is a state in which One remains unaffected by the effects of both, upsarga (externally induced suffering) and parishaha (internally induced affliction). And if one were to get affected, then One would simply continue to Know the effect but would not suffer (vedey) the effect. And even if he were to suffer the effect, He would still simply Know it; that is known as saiyam.”
