Let people say whatever they like, stick to your own convictions, and rest assured, the world will be at your feet. They say, "Have faith in this fellow or that fellow", but I say, "Have faith in yourself first", that's the way. Have faith in yourself-all power is in you-be conscious and bring it out. Say, "I can do everything."

I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything they really deserve.

When a man is perfect, he sees perfection in others. When he sees imperfection, it is his own mind projecting itself.

We see many persons talking the most wonderfully fine things about charity and about equality and the rights of other people and all that, but it is only in theory.

Every Hindu knows that astrologers try to fix the caste of every boy or girl as soon as he or she is born. That is the real caste - the individuality, and Jyotisha (astrology) recognises that. And we can only rise by giving it full sway again. This variety does not mean inequality, nor any special privilege.

Devotion to duty is the highest form of worship of God.
