Losing faith in one's self means losing faith in God.

Do you recall the story of the young Yogi in the Mahâbhârata who prided himself on his psychic powers by burning the bodies of a crow and crane by his intense will, produced by anger?

Both the forces of good and evil will keep the universe alive for us, until we awake from our dreams and give up this building of mud pies.

Perfection can be had by everybody.

My name should not be made prominent. It is my ideas that I want to see realized. The disciples of all the prophets have always inextricably mixed up the ideas of the Master with person, and at last killed the ideas for the person. The disciples of Sri Ramakrishna must guard against doing the same thing. Work for the idea, not the person.

Do not blame any supernatural being, neither be hopeless and despondent, nor think we are in a place from which we can never escape unless someone comes and lends us a helping hand.

Everything that we know is within our universe, and everything within our universe is moulded by the conditions of space, time, and causation.
