The first sign of your becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful

God is present in every Jiva; there is no other God besides that. Who serves Jiva serves God indeed.

Knowledge can only be got in one way, the way of experience; there is no other way to know.

The varieties of religious belief are an advantage, since all faiths are good, so far as they encourage us to lead a religious life. The more sects there are, the more opportunities there are for making a successful appeal to the divine instinct in all of us.

The Vedanta teaches men to have faith in themselves first.

We must become free. We are free; the work is to know it. We must give up all slavery, all bondage of whatever kind. We must not only give up our bondage to earth and everything and everybody on earth, but also to all ideas of heaven and happiness.

The essence of our Faith consists simply in this freedom of the Ishta.
