The human soul is on its journey from the law to love, from discipline to liberation, from the moral plane to the spiritual.

The meaning of our self is not to be found in its separateness from God and others, but in the ceaseless realization of yoga, of union; not on the side of the canvas where it is blank, but on the side where the picture is being painted.

O Beauty, find thyself in love, not in the flattery of thy mirror.

Other animals ran only when they had a reason, but the horse would run for no reason whatever, as if to run out of his own skin

Our self (Soul) is maya (an illusion) where it is merely individual and finite, where it considers its separateness as absolute; it is satyam (truth) where it recognizes its essence in the universal and infinite, in the Supreme Self, in paramatman (God). This is what Christ means when he says, "Before Abraham was, I am" (i.e. before Abraham was God, who is the same that is in my soul - I am That.)
