I am neither the mind, nor the intellect, nor the ego, nor the mind-stuff

Perfection is always infinite. We are the Infinite already. You and I, and all beings, are trying to manifest that infinity.

Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.

The fault with all religions like Christianity is that they have one set of rules for all. But Hindu religion is suited to all grades of religious aspiration and progress. It contains all the ideals in their perfect form. For example, the ideal of Shanta or blessedness is to be found in Vasishtha; that of love in Krishna; that of duty in Rama and Sita; and that of intellect in Shukadeva. Study the characters of these and of other ideal men. Adopt one which suits you best.

What is the world that is to be given up? It is here. I am carrying it all with me. My own body. It is all for this body that I put my hand voluntarily upon my fellow human beings, just to keep it nice and give it a little pleasure. It is all for the body that I injure others and make mistakes.

Is there any sex-distinction in the Atman (Self)? Out with the differentiation between man and woman—all is Atman! Give up the identification with the body, and stand up!

The older I grow, the more I see behind the idea of the Hindus that man is the greatest of all beings.
