A boat may stay in water, but water should not stay in boat. A spiritual aspirant may live in the world, but the world should not live within him. (Ramakrishna)

A boat may stay in water, but water should not stay in boat. A spiritual aspirant may live in the world, but the world should not live within him.

Ramakrishna
