What is the idea of God in heaven? Materialism. The Vedantic idea is the infinite principle of God embodied in every one of us. God sitting up on a cloud! Think of the utter blasphemy of it! It is materialism - downright materialism. When babies think this way, it may be all right, but when grown - up men try to teach such things, it is downright disgusting - that is what it is. It is all matter, all body idea, the gross idea, the sense idea. Every bit of it is clay and nothing but clay. Is that religion?

The one who actually succeeds in making himself believe that he is having a good time is the man of splendid physical health.

Change is always in regard to something which does not change, or which changes relatively less.

Be a hero. Always say, 'I have no fear.' Tell this to everyone - 'Have no fear.'

Have faith in yourself, all power is in you, be conscious and bring it out

Change is always subjective. All through evolution you find that the conquest of nature comes by change in the subject. Apply this to religion and morality, and you will find that the conquest of evil comes by the change in the subjective alone. That is how the Advaitic system gets its whole force, on the subjective side of man.

...oneness is the secret to everything.
