Self-Conquest Is The Highest Victory

"Thou one man conquers a thousand men, a thousand times in battle, he who conquers himself is the greatest warrior."

 One may conquer a thousand men in a thousand battles. But the person who conquers just one person, which is one’s own self, is the greatest conqueror.

Self conquest is greater than the conquest of others. The victory of one who conquers himself cannot be turned into defeat. He remains a self controlled individual who lives ever disciplined.

Such conquest cannot be turned into defeat either by a god, spirit, a Mara (devil) or a Brahma (creator). 

'understanding' is better than any 'battle'. the biggest battle is fought within... and it's within that you find peace.... 

May Wisdom be with you all...
