"If the people do not dread majesty, Then great majesty will come to them. Let them guard the innermost of their dwellings, Let them press towards the innermost of their life. The Master indeed is not bound, That is why he is not bound. That is how the self-controlled man knows the Self and perceives the not-Self. He loves the Self, and honours the not-Self. Therefore he passes away from the latter and takes hold of the former."
