Pearls of wisdom -153


Jada Bharata: A dream becomes automatically known to a person as false and immaterial, and similarly one eventually realizes that material happiness in this life or the next, on this planet or a higher planet, is insignificant. When one realizes this, the Vedas, although an excellent source, are insufficient to bring about direct knowledge of the truth.

Srimad Bhagavatam - Canto 5 Chapter 11 Verse 3
