You have six fires raging inside you, lust, anger, greed, attachment, pride and hatred. What have you in store, to put them out? Have ready satya, dharma and prema. They will help you to scotch the flames; they are effective extinguishers. (SSS Vol.4, p. 286)

Offer all bitterness in the sacred fire and emerge grand, great and godly. (VD)

From time to time divine power assumes numerous forms. In devotees it shines as the fire of wisdom (Jnana-agni). In non-devotees it burns as the fire of hatred (Krodha-Agni) or the fire of desire (Kama-Agni). Fire is a dreadful power. Even when it is at a distance, it evokes a sense of fear and danger. But man today has fire (of hatred, etc) in his heart and has become a victim of fear and delusion. This fire of lust, anger, hatred and jealousy can do a lot of havoc to man. All other types of fire subside in due course. But these fires (of hatred, etc) never completely cease. They may flare up at any moment. How, then are, these fires to be extinguished once and for all? What do you need for putting them out? Vairagya (detachment) and Prema (love) are the two requisites to extinguish these fires.
