There comes a time in the seeker's life when he discovers that he is at once the lover and the beloved.

Belief comes spontaneously as well as by effort. Belief is power. An insincere and uninspired seeker is aware of the truth that belief is power, but he cannot go beyond understanding or awareness; whereas a sincere, genuine, devoted and surrendered seeker knows that belief is dynamic power, and he has this power as his very own.

Yoga is self-conquest. Self-conquest is God-realisation. He who practises yoga does two things with one stroke: he simplifies his whole life, and he gets free access to the Divine.

Smile, smile, smile at your mind as often as possible. Your smiling will considerably reduce your mind's tearing tension.

No matter how fleeting
Your smile is,
Your smile is the very beginning
Of your wisdom-light.

Look at your heart-flower and smile.
You will be able to solve your most pressing problems.
