More quotes by Tulsidas

Faith in the Creator, who is mainly in his Godness and Godly in his man-ness, is like a human-self and can take him along.

No virtue is equal to the good of others and
no vice greater than hurting others.

The world knows that to quell the belly-fire, I ate crumbs and morsels given by men of caste, high-caste, low-caste or no cast.

There is no difference between knowledge and devotion,
Both of them save the soul from the miseries of worldly life.

In dependence, there is no happiness, even in a dream.
