The mistake is that we cling to the body when it is the spirit that is really immortal.

This life is a hard fact; work your way through it boldly, though it may be adamantine; no matter, the soul is stronger.

There is no other teacher but your own soul.

The greatest help to spiritual life is meditation. In meditation we divest ourselves of all material conditions and feel our divine nature. We do not depend upon any external help in meditation. The touch of the soul can paint the brightest color even in the dingiest places; it can cast a fragrance over the vilest thing; it can make the wicked divine-and all enmity, all selfishness is effaced.

Religion is the one and sole interest of the people of India.

No more materialism, no more this egoism, I must become spiritual.

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