जागरूकता के अलावा कुछ भी महत्वपूर्ण नहीं है,क्योंकि केवल जागरूकता को मौत नहीं ले जा सकती । बाकि सब कुछ छीन लिया जाएगा, क्योंकि सब कुछ बाहर से आता है। केवल जागरूकता भीतर से उमगती है। इसे छीना नहीं जा सकता। Nothing is important except Awareness. Since it cannot be taken away by death. Everything else will be snatched. Only Awareness springs from within. It cannot be robbed off.
