"The entire purpose of a clean and well-ordered life is to liberate man from the thralldom of chaos and the burden of sorrow. What is wrong with a life which is free from problems? Personality is merely a reflection of the real. Once you realize that the person is merely a shadow of the reality, but not reality itself, you cease to fret and worry. You agree to be guided from within and life becomes a journey into the unknown."
