Mundaka Upanishad 3.2.2
kāmān yaḥ kāmayate manyamānaḥ
sa kāmabhirjāyate tatra tatra .
paryāptakāmasya kṛtātmanastu
ihaiva sarve pravilīyanti kāmāḥ
He who, cherishing objects, desires them, is born again here or there through his desires, But for him whose desires are satisfied and who is established in the Self, all desires vanish even here on earth.
- 1. Viveka (Viveka is being able to identify what is changing and what is non-changing; what is short-term and what are long-term benefits in life.)
- 2. Vairagya (Vairagya means to create a broader vision in life. Vairagya means to be free from feverishness in life. To experience relief and release from the feverishness of desires is Vairagya.)
    Karana vairagya (A temporary dispassion that arises due to external causes like loss, grief, or disappointment. This type of vairagya is unstable and short-lived.)
    Viveka-purvaka vairagya (A deeper, lasting dispassion that comes from the discrimination of the real from the unreal. This vairagya is more stable and helpful for spiritual progress.)
- 3. Shat Sampatti: 
Shama - Inner calmness, tranquility of the mind. The ability to maintain equanimity and composure even in the face of challenges.
Dama - Self-control over the senses and restraint of the mind. The alignment of the senses with the intellect.
Titiksha - Forbearance, patience, and the ability to endure difficulties and unpleasant situations.
Uparati - Enjoyment and enthusiasm in one's actions, even in small things. A sense of wholehearted engagement.
Shraddha - Faith, trust and reverence, especially towards the spiritual path and teachings.
Samadhana - Contentment, inner balance and the ability to find peace and clarity amidst the complexities of life.
- 4. Mumukshatva (Mumukshatva is the dawning of interest into the deeper aspects of life, a deep desire to be free.
)
65: 
Mundaka Upanishad 1.2.12
parīkṣya lokān karmacitān brāhmaṇo
nirvedamāyānnāstyakṛtaḥ kṛtena .
tadvijñānārthaṃ sa gurumevābhigacchet
samitpāṇiḥ śrotriyaṃ brahmaniṣṭham
Let a brahmin, after having examined all these worlds that are gained by works, acquire freedom from desires: nothing that is eternal can be produced by what is not eternal. In order that he may understand that Eternal, let him, fuel in hand, approach a guru who is well versed in the Vedas and always devoted to Brahman. 
66: 6 key vicharas (contemplations) are: jiva-jagat-ishwara, atma-anatma, brahma satyam-jagat mithya, and aham brahma asmi.
Jiva Jagat Isvara Bandha Moksha Sadhana

Swami Chinmayananda Quotes:

What you meet in life is Destiny. 
How you meet is own free will.

To give maximum happiness to maximum people for maximum time
==========================
The first one is the Mamakaara (how we feel about ourselves, which is usually lower than what we are). 
The second is the Ahamkaara (what we project out into the world to cover up the Mamakaara and this is usually higher than what we are at the moment). 
The third is the Swa-Anyakaara (how we see others and life). 
The fourth is the Anyakaara (how others see us).

Laghu Nyasam - Sanskrit Hymn

This is recited before Rudram (Shiva Pooja). This is the shorter version of Nyasa. This symbolically helps the performer of meditation & pooja to bring divinity inside him. Nyasa is a Sanskrit word which means 'placing', 'stabilizing', 'fixing', 'invoking' or 'stamping' depending upon the context.

Pṛthu Mahārāja attained salvation by worshiping the Deity of the Lord. 
Akrūra attained salvation by offering prayers,

tat te karma pravakṣhyāmi yaj jñātvā mokṣhyase ’śhubhāt
What is action and what is inaction? Even the wise are confused in determining this. Now I shall explain to you the secret of action, by knowing which, you may free yourself from material bondage.
BG 4.17: 
karmaṇo hyapi boddhavyaṁ boddhavyaṁ cha vikarmaṇaḥ
akarmaṇaśh cha boddhavyaṁ gahanā karmaṇo gatiḥ
You must understand the nature of all three—recommended action, wrong action, and inaction. The truth about these is profound and difficult to understand.
BG 4.18: 
karmaṇyakarma yaḥ paśhyed akarmaṇi cha karma yaḥ
sa buddhimān manuṣhyeṣhu sa yuktaḥ kṛitsna-karma-kṛit
Those who see action in inaction and inaction in action are truly wise amongst humans. Although performing all kinds of actions, they are yogis and masters of all their actions.

BG 3.4: 
na karmaṇām anārambhān naiṣhkarmyaṁ puruṣho ’śhnute
na cha sannyasanād eva siddhiṁ samadhigachchhati
One cannot achieve freedom from karmic reactions by merely abstaining from work, nor can one attain perfection of knowledge by mere physical renunciation.

chātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛiṣhṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśhaḥ
