Consciously or unconsciously, we are all striving for perfection. Every being must attain to it.

Be brave! Be strong! Be fearless! Once you have taken up the spiritual fife, fight! Fight as long as there is any life in you! Even though you know that you are going to be killed, fight till you are killed! Don't die of fright! Die fighting! Don't go down till you are knocked down.

Give up all self, all egotisms get out of anger, lust, give all to God. "I am not, but Thou art; the old man is all gone, only Thou remainest." "I am Thou." Blame none; if evil comes, know the Lord is playing with you and be exceeding glad.

The greatest sin is to think that you are weak. No one is greater: realize that you are Brahman. Nothing has power except what you give it.

Bold has been my message to the people of the west, bolder is my message to you, my beloved countryman.

Impurity is a mere superimposition under which your real nature has become hidden. But the real you is already perfect, already strong.

Every action generates a force of energy that returns to us in like kind...what we sow is what we reap.
