The soul grows by reincarnation in bodies provided by nature, more complex, more powerful, as the soul unfolds greater and greater faculties. And so the soul climbs upward into the light eternal. And there is no fear for any child of man, for inevitably he climbs towards God.

No soul that aspires can ever fail to rise; no heart that loves can ever be abandoned. Difficulties exist only that in overcoming them we may grow strong, and they who have suffered are able to save.

The man of meditation is the man who wastes no time, scatters no energy, misses no opportunity.

The human body is constantly undergoing a process of decay and of reconstruction.

With every moment tiny molecules are passing away from it; with every moment tiny molecules are streaming into it.

That is the true definition of sin; when knowing right you do the lower, ah, then you sin. Where there is no knowledge, sin is not present.
