We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with an impure mind
And trouble will forllow you
As the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart.

We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with a pure mind
And happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unbreakable.

How can a troubled mind
Understand the way?

Your worst enemy cannot harm you
As much as your own thoughts, unguarded.

But once mastered,
No one can help you as much,
Not even your father or your mother.

Nature is an infinite sphere of which the center is everywhere and the circumference nowhere.

The nature of God is a circle of which the center is everywhere and the circumference is nowhere.

For all problems of existence are essentially problems of harmony.

Wherever I look, I see men quarrelling in the name of religion --- Hindus, Mohammendans, Brahmos, Vaishnavas, and the rest.  But they never reflect that He who is called Krishna is also called Siva, and bears the name of the Primal Energy, Jesus, and Allah as well --- the same Rama with a thousand names.  A lake has several ghats.  At one the Hindus take water in pitchers and call it 'jal'; at another the Mussalmans take water in leather bags and call it 'pani'.  At a third the Christians call it 'water'.  Can we imagine that it is not 'jal', but only 'pani' or 'water'?  How ridiculous!  The substance is One under different names, and everyone is seeking the same substance; only climate, temperament, and name create differences.  Let each man follow his own path.  If he sincerely and ardently wishes to know God, peace be unto him!  He will surely realize Him.

He alone sees truly who sees the Lord the same in every creature...seeing the same Lord everywhere, he does not harm himself or others.
