““All the scriptures are written to know God. One has never attained God and has kept on wandering for infinite lives. Nothing can be resolved, unless one gets rid of his ignorance about his real Self. All this is imagination. The imaginary pictures which people have created (in their mind), there is no end to that imagination.””
