Calmness is the living breath of God's immortality in you.

Humans become angels on earth, not in heaven.

In your heart must well that sympathy which soothes away all pains from the hearts of others.

Weaken a bad habit by avoiding everything that occasioned it or stimulated it, without concentrating upon it in your zeal to avoid it. Then divert your mind to some good habit and steadily cultivate it until it becomes a dependable part of you.

God-realization is attained only by great effort on the part of the yogi and by divine grace.

The greatest dread of ordinary man is death, with its rude imposition interrupting fortuitous plans and fondest attachments with an unknown and unwelcome change. The yogi is a conqueror of the grief associated with death. By control of mind and life force and the development of wisdom, he makes friends with the change of consciousness called death-he becomes familiar with the state of inner calmness and aloofness from identification with the mortal body.

By the practice of meditation, you will find that you are carrying within your heart a portable paradise.
