“Know yourself; live your life consciously.”
Because that is the only barrier you have—consciousness—
between your actions and those consequences that you don’t want.
To mitigate those actions, those consequences,
the only way you can do it is if you start practicing consciousness,
to be aware of what is happening:
“What are you about to do; what are you about to say;
what is going to be”—to give it a little thought, “What is going to be?”

-Prem Rawat
