Spirituality as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.

Man stands in materialism; you and I are materialists. Our talking about God and Spirit is good; but it is simply the vogue in our society to talk thus: we have learnt it parrot-like and repeat it.
