"Let Rāma come here for a while and in a moment we shall dispel his delusion, as wind drives away clouds from mountaintops. After his mental dullness is removed by my reasoning, he will be able to rest in that happy state of mind to which we have arrived. He shall not only attain pure truth and a clear understanding of uninterrupted tranquility, but he will also secure a plumpness and beauty of figure and complexion, as one derives from a potion of ambrosia… He will become strong with knowledge of both worlds, exempt from the states of pleasure and pain. Then he will look upon gold and stones with an indifferent eye.” — 1.11.3-7

“This scripture is easy to understand and ornamented with figures of speech. It is a poem full of flavors and embellished with beautiful similes. One who has slight knowledge of words and their meanings may be self-taught in it, but he who does not understand the meanings well should learn from a paṇḍit. After hearing, thinking about and understanding this work, one has no more need to practice austerities or meditation, repeating mantras or performing other rites. A man requires nothing else for the attainment of his liberation. By deep study of this work and its repeated perusal, a man attains an uncommon scholarship and purification of his soul.” — 2.18.33-36
