Vain indeed is all overweening pride in the conquest even of the entire universe if one has not conquered one's own passions.
Sri AurobindoThe Truth-power must be brought down from above into that state of peace, and this higher power - Parashakti - will directly guide the vehicle - ฤdhฤra - and transform it.
Sri AurobindoArise, transcend Thyself, Thou art man and the whole nature of man Is to become more than himself.
Sri AurobindoThe experiences of your past life which are stored within come up to the surface to be rejected. By rejecting all these by and by the inside will have to be cleansed.
Sri AurobindoAll fanaticism is false, because it is a contradiction of the very nature of God and of Truth. Truth cannot be shut up in a single book, Bible or Veda or Koran, or in a single religion. The Divine Being is eternal and universal and infinite and cannot be the sole property of the Mussulmans or of the Semitic religions only, - those that happened to be in a line from the Bible and to have Jewish or Arabian prophets for their founders.
