The highest manifestation of strength is to keep ourselves calm and on our own feet.

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

The man who gives way to anger, or hatred, or any other passion, cannot work; he only breaks himself to pieces, and does nothing practical. It is the calm, forgiving, equable, well-balanced mind that does the greatest amount of work.

When the soul wants to depend upon nothing, not even upon life, that is the height of philosophy, the height of manhood.

The day, man will find that he never really dies; that his Soul persists beyond death; he will have no more fear of death.

A sapling must be hedged about for protection, but when it becomes a tree, a hedge would be a hindrance. So there is no need to criticise and condemn the old forms.

Everything has a cause.
