Do not fret because the world looks with suspicion at every new attempt, even though it be in the path of spirituality.

My son, hold fast! Do not care for anybody to help you. Is not the Lord infinitely greater than all human help? Be holy--trust in the Lord, depend on him always, and you are on the right track. Nothing can prevail against you.

Even if our every attempt is a failure, and we bleed and are torn asunder, yet, through all this, we have to preserve our heart - we must assert our Godhead in the midst of all these difficulties.

The finer the instrument, the greater the power. The mind is much finer and more powerful than the body.

Nothing is gained except by sacrifice.... Do not degrade it to the level of the brutes.... Make yourselves decent men! ... Be chaste and pure! ... There is no other way. Did Christ find any other way?

Blessed are they whose bodies get destroyed in the service of others.

All knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind; the infinite library of the universe is in our own mind.
