Additional quotes by Basava

Though shall not steal nor kill;
Not speak a lie;
Be angry with no one, Nor scorn another man;
Nor glory in thyself;
Nor others hold you to blame This is your inward purity;
This is your outward purity;
This is the way to win our Lord:
Kudalasangama

Work with a feeling that, there is none lower than me; There is none greater than society of Sharanas.

Live morally, do not aspire for other's Wealth, Women and God.
