However we may receive blows, and however knocked about we may be, the Soul is there and is never injured. We are that Infinite.

The human will stands beyond all circumstances. Everything must go down before the will, for that comes from God Himself; a pure and a strong will is omnipotent. Before it all the powers, even of nature, must bow down, succumb, and become its servants - the strong gigantic, infinite will in man.

We are all born cowards.

Wherever in any society there are too many laws, it is a sure sign that that society will soon die. If you study the characteristics of India, you will find that no nation possesses so many laws as the Hindus, and national death is the result.

What is salvation? To live with God. Where? Anywhere. Here this moment. One moment in infinite time is quite as good as any other moment.

Each man must begin where he stands, must learn how to control the things that are nearest to him.

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