Evolution of consciousness is the central motive of terrestrial existence.

One mighty deed can change the course of things; a lonely thought becomes omnipotent.

Hinduism... gave itself no name, because it set itself no sectarian limits; it claimed no universal adhesion, asserted no sole infallible dogma, set up no single narrow path or gate of salvation; it was less a creed or cult than a continuously enlarging tradition of the Godward endeavour of the human spirit.
