You are the endless sea
In whom all the worlds like waves
Naturally rise and fall.
You have nothing to win,
Nothing to lose.
Child,
You are pure awareness,
Nothing less.
You and the world are one.
So who are you to think
You can hold on to it,
Or let it go?
How could you!
-Ashtavakra Gita 15: 11-12

Sounds like musings from a Nihilist!
From a Christian perspective, the world as a whole is LOST to sin. We have everything to win and everything to lose where God is concerned. Believers are 1 with God, unbelievers are 1 with evil. Embrace God and he will embrace you!
Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me -John 15:4

Very interesting quote, it implies that we are our own salvation and we have some control over our lives. But, I am having a very hard time, thinking is truly inspiritional for my belief system.

I like it. It can be useful as an affirmation against fear, and doubt.
