Liberty in thought and action is the only condition of life, growth and well-being: Where it does not exist, the man, the race, and the nation must go down.

Work done for the Self gives no bondage. Neither desire pleasure nor fear pain from work. It is the mind and body that work, not I. Tell yourself this unceasingly and realise it. Try not to know that you work.

We do not look at our own faults; the eyes do not see themselves, they see the eyes of everybody else. We human beings are very slow to recognise our own weakness, our own faults, so long as we can lay the blame upon somebody else.

The same power is in every man, the one manifesting more, the other less; the same potentiality is in everyone.

Perfection is not to be attained, it is already within us.

Persevere on, my brave lads, We have only just begun. Never despond! Never say enough!

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
