Human society comprises various races. There is no reason whatever to recognise one race as superior to another race.
The external differences in constitutions among these human groups cannot alter their basic human traits – love and affection, pleasure and pain, hunger and thirst.

The variations in local customs cannot be removed by legal force or by dictatorial rule.
If an attempt is made to destroy common practices, languages, local manners and customs in the name of national or human unity, violence and mutual distrust will result and collective life will be doomed.

Marching ahead is life.
Crushing the pebbles of hindrances and obstacles with a stroke of your feet,
disdaining the frowns of winds, tornadoes, meteors and roaring thunder,
and rendering all superstitions to ashes without any second thought.
March on and on.
The Supreme Consciousness is with you.
Victory is yours.

In the field of spirituality
This human society is one
Whatever people do in their spirituality

The firmness of a person’s resolve makes one great. However lowly a person may be, one can become great by one’s determination.
If you have a firm resolve to realise your goal, you shall become great. Without a firm resolution, you cannot achieve anything.

Let us move together,
let us radiate the same thought-wave,
let us come to know our minds together
Let us share our wealth without differentiation,
like sages of the past,
so that all may enjoy the universe

Fight for your ideology
Be one with your ideology
Live for your ideology
Die for your ideology

Suppose you want to do something, don’t say “I will try!” say “I will do!”
If you say “I will try” it may take more than a thousand years to develop the proper psychology to reach your goal. So there is no question of trying.
The question is of being.
To be, not to try.

The meaning of spiritual practice
is to look upon every human being,
every object of this universe as one integral entity.
To jeopardise the unity of the human race by creating factions
is not the purpose of spirituality.

What is sadhana?
Sadhana is the transformation of fearful love into fearless love.
This meditation (sadhana) for complete merger, for unification, starts with fearful love.
Love must be there. Unless and until there is love, there cannot be unification.

Spirituality is not a utopian ideal
but a practical philosophy
which can be practiced and realised
in every day life.

What is dogma?
Dogma is an idea with a rigid boundary line, which won’t allow you to go beyond the periphery of that boundary line. Thus dogma goes against the fundamental spirit of the human mind. The human mind won’t tolerate anything rigid. It wants movement – not only movement, but accelerated movement. Humans want unbarred psychic progress, intellectual progress, without obstacles.

After millions of animal lives, created beings attain human forms.
That is why all the scriptures speak of the rarity of human life.
You have achieved human frame – you must make it meaningful
by your sadhana (spiritual practice), service and sacrifice.

The main characteristic of Tantra (spiritual expression) is that it represents mainly vigour. It represents a pactless fight. Where there is no fight there is no sadhana (spiritual practice).
It is impossible to conquer a crude idea and to replace it by a subtle idea without a fight. It is not possible without spiritual practice. Hence, Tantra is not only a fight, it is an all-round fight. It is not only an external or an internal fight, it is simultaneously both.
June 8th, 2010

What is sadhana (spiritual practice)?
Sadhana means an effort.
Effort for what?
It is an endless effort to become one with the Supreme Nucleus.
It is a ceaseless effort to obtain perfection from imperfection.

A prayer to the supreme consciousness…
Do whatever you think fit and best for me.
I do not know in which way lies my good.
You know.

Engage yourself in such useful pursuits
that even the worst of your enemies
hardly has any chance to despise you;
engage yourself in such a manner
so that you have satisfaction in your mind also,
that you didn’t waste your time on this earth.

No person in this world is powerless.
Whoever has come on this earth
has been graced with some amount of power.
May 19th, 2010

Until changes are effected in the human mind,
no permanent world solution is possible.
Behind all the strife, cruelty and mistrust within humanity,
there is misguided intellect.
That is, intellect is not moving on the right path,
it is not connected to the collective welfare.
