Wherever there is evil and wherever there is ignorance and want of knowledge, I have found out by experience that all evil comes, as our scriptures say, relying upon differences, and that all good comes from faith in equality, in the underlying sameness and oneness of things. This is the great Vedantic ideal.

Every one is as much bound in thought, word, deed, and mind, as a piece of stone or this table. That I talk to you now is as rigorous in causation as that you listen to me. There is no freedom until you go beyond Maya. That is the real freedom of the soul.

As the cause is, so the effect will be Cause is never different from effect, the effect is but the cause reproduced in another form.

Strength and manliness are virtue; weakness and cowardice are sin.

There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Work hard, be steady, and have faith in the Lord. Set to work.

It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
