Do not use intoxicants of any sort. We who should be serving the world should not ruin our health by smoking and drinking. The money we waste on these things can be used for so many useful things. With the money we smoke away, we can buy an artificial leg for one who has lost a leg, pay for an eye operation for someone with a cataract, or buy a wheelchair for a polio victim. Or, if nothing else, we can buy some spiritual books for the local library.

When one has truly imbibed spiritual qualities, they will spontaneously be reflected in one's thoughts and actions.

Don't be discouraged by your incapacity to dispel darkness from the world. Light your little candle and step forward.

Love one another without any expectations. Then, there is no need to go anywhere in search of heaven.

In today's world, people experience two types of poverty: the poverty caused by lack of food, clothing and shelter, and the poverty caused by lack of love and compassion. Of these two, the second type needs to be considered first because if we have love and compassion in our hearts, then we will wholeheartedly serve those who suffer from lack of food, clothing and shelter.

Just as armor protects the soldier, spiritual knowledge protects us from the difficulties of life.

In this age of selfishness, selfless service is the only soap that truly purifies.
