A collection of teachings and quotes of Mataji Vanamali.
Is there no hope for the individual? Can he never escape from the cage he is in? Hinduism says that the only escape is to free ourselves from the constraints of the body-mind-intellect cage in which we all live. Then enter the realm of the Atman, which alone can be said to be free from all constraints.

The enlightened soul alone can be said to have free will for
he is not being imposed by an external agent but only by the freedom of his own
soul.
Like the child reveling on the beach, playing with sand,
making castles which will be swept away by the sea, the liberated soul is bound
by nothing.
He takes orders only from the Divine within him and none
will dare to question him.
