{{Quote box|width=360px|bgcolor=|align=left|quoted=1|salign=right|quote=With which qualities should one be endowed? The greatest quality of a person within an assembly is the capacity to convince others. The highest quality in the battlefield is “yudhi vikramam”, or valour in the battle. While in danger, one’s great quality is patience. So what are the qualities of a dhármika (virtuous person)? First, he or she must have patience. Without patience one’s intellect can easily get misguided resulting in misunderstandings as to what should be done and what should not be done. Losing the faculty of judgment, one is easily defeated.|source=Shrii Shrii Anandamurti}}
{{Quote box|width=360px|bgcolor=|align=left|quoted=1|salign=right|quote=So let us pray to Him that we ever forget Him, that we always remain united with that Supreme Benevolence. Let Him arouse unwavering ideation in us. “Smrti” means “memory” or “recollection” and “dhruvásmrti” means “constant recollection” of Him. One should always remember one thing constantly: Parama Puruśa. This will result in the intellect being constantly full of benevolent thoughts, forever linked with the spirit of benevolence. This and this alone should be the one prayer of human beings.|source=Shrii Shrii Anandamurti}}
Anandamurti starts the discourse by saying that the Indian scriptures encourage people to cherish the desire for salvation. On the other hand, He recommends that we do not God ask for anything at all. If we must ask for something, then we shell ask that our intellect be led along the path of virtue. Anandamurti then explains that all the violence and clash in this world is a result of misguided intellect. Although exerting circumstantial pressure against exploiters and immoralists in society is necessary, we must at the same time encourage people to follow the path of righteousness so that individual and collective progress is achieved. Anandamurti goes on saying that our only prayer should be to never forget Him. In this way, our thoughts will remain permanently united with the Lord's boundless grace.<ref name="AV4"/>
