As space cannot be compared with another space, so Brahman, being above duality, cannot be compared with any object. Brahman alone is perfection, taintless, all knowledge.
~Avadhuta Gita II.9

~Avadhuta Gita II.9
So long as actions are performed; so long as the impressions of the world of change remain, so long as the senses are fickle; so long, how can there be realisation of Truth? So long as there is pride of body; so long as there is the sense of mineness, so long as there is excited striving; so long as there is imagination of plans; so long as there is not stability of mind; so long as there is no meditation upon the shastras, so long as there is no love for the Teacher; so long, how can there be realisation of Truth?
~Garuda Purana XVI:95-97.
Whe jiva attains the state of neutrality to deeds good and evil, then does divine grace in guru form descend, remove attributes all and implant jnana that is untoa heavenly cool shade. The jiva is without egoisity, and the impurities three are finished. He is Siva who all this does.

Om purnam adah, purnam idam, purnat purnam udacyate; purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate.Om Santih! Santih! Santih!
Let us worship Him, the pure-formed One, the cloud which, emitting a rain of unthinkable joy, satiates the hearts and eyes of its followers, as if millions of rain clouds had poured down, the stay of the Great Silence, called by many names, described by many religions, the embodiment of ineffable degrees of spiritual happiness.
Tayumanavar
Om purnam adah, purnam idam, purnat purnam udacyate; purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate.Om Santih! Santih! Santih!
As long as the I-sense lasts, so long are true Knowledge (jnana) and Liberation (mukti) impossible.
Sri Ramana Maharshi
Om purnam adah, purnam idam, purnat purnam udacyate; purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate.Om Santih! Santih! Santih!

Wisdom comes from all different times, here is a neo-classical.
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.

Listen to the Exhortation of the dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life Of Life
In Its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendour of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!
-Kalidasa

Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah

One of my favorites:
Tell a man there are 400 billion stars in the sky and he'll believe you, but tell him a bench is covered in wet paint and he has to touch it. ... Jeanne
at first its cliche' - until one really thinks about the nature of the human condition.

Before the Beginning of things Thou didst exist in the form of a Darkness which is beyond both speech and mind, and of Thee by the creative desire of the Supreme Brahman was the entire Universe born.
This Universe, from the great principle of Mahat down to the gross elements, has been created by Thee, since Brahman Cause of all causes is but the instrumental Cause.
It is the Ever-existent, Changeless, Omnipresent, Pure Intelligence unattached to, yet existing in and enveloping all things.
It acts not, neither does It enjoy. It moves not, neither is It motionless. It is the Truth and Knowledge, without beginning or end, Ineffable and Incomprehensible.
~Mahanirvana Tantra (IV:25-28)
