Man is the product of two forces, action and reaction, which make him think.

Hindu religion does not consist in struggles and attempts to believe a certain doctrine or dogma, but in realizing not in believing, but in being and becoming.

As soon as extreme attachment comes, a man loses himself, he is no more master of himself, he is a slave.

He who has infinite patience and infinite energy at his back, will alone succeed.

Everything will come right if you are pure and sincere. We want hundreds like you bursting upon society and bringing new life and vigor of the spirit wherever they go.

The first sign that you are becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful. When a man is gloomy, that may be dyspepsia, but it is not religion. Misery is caused by sin, and by no other cause. What business have you with clouded faces? It is terrible. If you have a clouded face, do not go out that day, shut yourself up in your room. What right have you to carry this disease out into the world?

Give love, give help, give service, and give any little thing you can, but keep out barter.
