Keep your mind fixed on God :
If you wash an elephant well and leave it at large,
it is sure to make itself dirty in no time; but if,
after the wash, you tie it down in its stable, it will remain clean.
So, if by the good influences of holy men,
you once become pure in spirit,
and then allow yourself to mix freely with worldly men,
you are sure to lose that purity soon;
but if you keep your mind fixed on God,
you will never more get soiled in spirit.
-Sri Ramakrishna
