- A ksatriya's duty is to give charity, & a brahmana's duty is to accept charity, but not more than needed to maintain body & soul together. Therefore, when the brahmanas were given so much land by Lord Ramacandra, they returned it to Him & were not greedy

- As long as the living being, under illusion, accepts the body or the mind as the soul, he will always be unhappy, like a man in the burning heat of autumn
- As long as the soul and the body are combined, we can understand that there is life. But when they are separated, there is no manifested existence of the body or the soul
- As we have got distinction between the body and the soul, Krsna has no such distinction. Krsna is completely soul. And if we think that Krsna is like us, that is forbidden

- He (the perfect yogi at the time of death) does not feel his material body being separated from his soul; the soul is immediately transferred to the spiritual world
- He (the self-realized person) is never bewildered by mistaking the gross body for the soul, nor does he accept the body as permanent and disregard the existence of the soul. BG 1972 purports
- How is it possible for one to become his own friend? This is explained here; atma means mind, body and soul. When we speak of atma, insofar as we are in the bodily conception, we refer to the body
