Man is to become divine by realizing the divine. Idols or temples, or churches or books, are only the supports, the help of his spiritual childhood.

My Master used to say, when a pitcher is being filled (by immersion), it gurgles, but when full, it is noiseless.

Whatever is weak, avoid! It is death.

The past was great no doubt, but I sincerely believe that the future will be more glorious still.

All power is within you; you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do any thing and everything, without even the guidance of any one. Stand up and express the divinity within you.

The progress and civilisation of the human race simply mean controlling this nature.

Each atom is trying to fly off from its centre. In the internal world, each thought is trying to go beyond control. Again each particle in the external world is checked by another force, the centripetal, and drawn towards the centre. Similarly in the thought - world the controlling power is checking all these outgoing desires.
