You Are ALL THAT IS |
| |
Our duty is to encourage every one in his
struggle to live up to his own highest idea and strive at
the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the
Truth.
All the powers in the universe are already ours.
It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry
that it is dark.
The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature.
Have faith in yourselves!
If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught
and practiced,
I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries
that we have would have vanished.

Discover Your Own
Unique Idea |
| |
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Take up one idea.
Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea.
Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone.
This is the way to success, that is way great spiritual giants are produced. |
