If there is one word that you find coming out like a bomb from the Upanishads, bursting like a bombshell upon masses of ignorance. It is the word ‘fearlessness’.
The less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do. When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.
Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If not, fold your hands, bless your brothers, and let them go their own way.
As soon as you know the voice and understand what it is, the whole scene changes. The same world which was the ghastly battlefield of maya is now changed into something good and beautiful.
Knowledge can only be got in one way, the way of experience; there is no other way to know.
It is the cheerful mind that is persevering. It is the strong mind that hews its way through a thousand difficulties.
In one word, this ideal is that you are divine.
Every action that helps us manifest our divine nature more and more is good; every action that retards it is evil.
Fill the brain with high thoughts, highest ideals, place them day and night before you, and out of that will come great work.
That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.
