The spirit is the cause of all our thoughts and body-action, and everything, but it is untouched by good or evil, pleasure or pain, heat of cold, and all the dualism of nature, although it lends its light to everything.

Men may have given millions of dollars and fed rats and cats, as some do in India. They say that men can take care of themselves, but the poor animals cannot. . .

It is a retarding element creating hatred and anger, and causing people to fight each other, and making them unsympathetic.

It is only work that is done as freewill offering to humanity and to nature that does not bring with it any binding attachment.

Cowardice is no virtue.

The Older I grow, the more everything seems to me to lie in manliness. This is my new gospel

All knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind; the infinite library of the universe is in our own mind.
