Man never dies, nor is he ever born; bodies die, but he never dies.

All sectarian religions take for granted that all men are equal. This is not warranted by science. There is more difference between minds than between bodies. One fundamental doctrine of Hinduism is that all men are different, there being unity in variety. Even for a drunkard, there are some Mantras-even for a man going to a prostitute!

The body is mortal and the mind is mortal; both, being compounds, must die.

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

As long as a man thinks, this struggle must go on, and so long man must have some form of religion.

Tell the truth boldly, whether it hurts or not. Never pander to weakness. If truth is too much for intelligent people and sweeps them away, let them go; the sooner the better.

The animal has its happiness in the senses, the human beings in their intellect, and the gods in spiritual contemplation. It is only to the soul that has attained to this contemplative state that the world really becomes beautiful.
