“Outside and above the mind there is the play of a consciousness which is lighted by the higher Truth, but man is not conscious of it and of that he has to be conscious.”

The principle of Yoga is the turning of one or of all powers of our human existence into a means of reaching divine Being.

Turn all things to honey; this is the law of divine living.

The meeting of man and God must always mean a penetration and entry of the divine into the human and a self-immergence of man in the Divinity.

An active mind needs an outlet. If it stops by itself from within, well and good; otherwise one should not try to stop this by force.

Suffering makes us capable of the full force of the Master of Delight; it makes us capable also to bear the utter play of the Master of Power. Pain is the key that opens the gates of strength; it is the high-road that leads to the city of beatitude.

But difficulties were made to be overcome and if the Supreme Will is there, they will be overcome.

Man in the world’s life works out the dreams of God.

This world is a vast unbroken totality, a deep solidarity joins its contrary powers.

Only when Eternity takes Time by the hand, Only when infinity weds the finite’s thought, Can man be free from himself and live with God.

Recover the source of all strength in yourself, and all else will be added to you … political freedom, the mastery of human thought, the hegemony of the world.

The anarchic is the true divine state of man in the end as in the beginning; but in between it would lead us straight to the devil and his kingdom.

You have however within you an inclination towards completeness.

Delight is the secret. Learn of pure delight and thou shalt learn of God.

Impossibility is only a sum of greater unrealised possibles. It veils an advanced stage and a yet unaccomplished journey.

To hope for a true change of human life without a change of human nature is an irrational and unspiritual proposition.

Hidden nature is secret God.

You are the light of consciousness and also the witness of this light. You are pure awareness.

Consciousness is the creative element in the universe. Without it, nothing would appear.

Gratitude places you in the energy field of plentitude. Perceiving life in a consciousness of gratitude is literally stepping into another dimension of living. Suddenly the seeming ordinariness of your days takes on a divine sparkle.

I will never know how you see red and you will never know how I see it. But this separation of consciousness is recognized only after a failure of communication, and our first movement is to believe in an undivided being between us.

The task of science is to stake out the limits of the knowable, and to center consciousness within them.

Attempting to understand consciousness with your mind, is like trying to illuminate the sun with a candle.

All the ups and downs are grace in different wrappings, sent to refine consciousness. Say thanks to them all.

Simply performing devotional activities will not impart devotion to others but our consciousness should be absorbed.
