MAKE YOUR SOUL AS YOUR

TEACHER

� “You have to grow from

the inside out. None can

teach you, none can make

you spiritual. There is no

other teacher but your own

soul.

� “We are responsible for what we are,

and whatever we wish ourselves to be,

we have the power to make ourselves. If

what we are now has been the result of

our own past actions, it certainly follows

that whatever we wish to be in future

can be produced by our present actions;

so we have to know how to act

WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR

DESTINY

HAVE GOOD

THOUGHTS

�“We are what our

thoughts have made us; so

take care about what you

think. Words are

secondary. Thoughts live;

they travel far.

� “The first sign of

your becoming

religious is that you

are becoming

cheerful

BE CHEERFUL

SELF CONFIDENCE IS

BIGGER RELIGION

�The greatest religion

is to be true to your

own nature. Have faith

in yourselves

�“Religion is the

manifestation of the

Divinity already in

man

BE DIVINE

SEE GOD IN MAN

� The moment I have realized God

sitting in the temple of every human

body, the moment I stand in

reverence before every human being

and see God in him - that moment I

am free from bondage, everything

that binds vanishes, and I am free.

� I do not want to get material life,

do not want the sense-life, but

something higher." That is

renunciation. Then, by the power

of meditation, undo the mischief

that has been done.

WHAT IS

RENUNCIATION

BE FEARLESS – BE A HERO

� “The earth is enjoyed by

heroes”—this is the

unfailing truth. Be a hero.

Always say, “I have no

fear.”

�All knowledge that the

world has ever received

comes from the mind; the

infinite library of the

universe is in our own mind.

OUR MIND IS TREASURE OF

KNOWLEDGE
