The Secret of the Nagas (Shiva Trilogy, #2)

by Amish Tripathi

Believe the theory that gives you peace and reject the one that causes you pain.

Truth doesn’t have to be liked. It only has to be spoken. Speak it out. The truth may hurt you, but it will set you free.

There is a god in every single one of us. And there is evil in every single one of us. The true battle between good and evil is fought within.

Everything in the world is maya, an illusion.

That the opposite of love is not hate. Hate is just love gone bad. The actual opposite of love is apathy. When you don’t care a damn as to what happens to the other person.’

‘Because desire creates attachment. Attachment to this world. And, when you don’t get what you want or get what you don’t want, it leads to suffering. This leads to anger. And that to violence and wars. Which finally results in destruction.’
