The Soul In Man Is Greater Than

We Have To Create Strength Where It Did Not Exist Before; We Have To Change Our Natures, And Become New Men With New Hearts, To Be Born Again. We Need A Nucleus Of Men In Whom The Shakti Is Developed To Its Uttermost Extent, In Whom It Fills Every Corner Of The Personality And Overflows To Fertilise The Earth. These, Having The Fire Of Bhawani In Their Hearts And Brains, Will Go Forth And Carry The Flame To Every Nook And Cranny Of Our Land.

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.

The Mind Is Running On All Sides To Think About Many Things, - What We Call Thoughts Coming From Outside. We Must Withdraw The Mind From These Distractions And Make It Abide In The Self. Thus Guarding The Peace Within We Shall Have To Do The Work Without.

Arise, Transcend Thyself, Thou Art Man And The Whole Nature Of Man Is To Become More Than Himself.

The Yoga We Practice Is Not For Ourselves Alone, But For The Divine; Its Aim Is To Work Out The Will Of The Divine In The World, To Effect A Spiritual Transformation And To Bring Down A Divine Nature And A Divine Life Into The Mental, Vital And Physical Nature And Life Of Humanity. Its Object Is Not Personal Mukti, Although Mukti Is A Necessary Condition Of The Yoga, But The Liberation And Transformation Of The Human Being. It Is Not Personal Ananda, But The Bringing Down Of The Divine Ananda - Christ's Kingdom Of Heaven, Our Satyayuga - Upon The Earth.
