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.

It is unnecessary to leave the world, to leave service to humanity and to go to the Himalayas to attain the Supreme Consciousness. This universe itself is the Supreme Consciousness – where will you go by leaving it?

In the world a person thinks that they are not able to concentrate their mind because of the din and bustle; but in the cave of the Himalayas they think that they cannot get sweet fruit in a particular jungle, and hence tomorrow they will go and pick ripe plums two or three miles away in a different forest. In either place they are not free.

Those who possess sufficient intellect say they have none,
but those who have none boast that they have a great deal.

The means to have much knowledge
is to understand that one has no knowledge.

The world is a changing phenomenon. Therefore, it is unwise to be attached to any object in the ever-changing world. The very name and form will undergo changes with the change in time and place. The child changes into youth, the youth into the old, and the old into the corpse.

But if wise people take every object of the world as the expression of the one and single Cosmic Consciousness, then on seeing the changes in the name and form of any particular object, they will not be affected by pain or pleasure.

Suppose there is a big garden of mangoes and both the intellectuals and devotees arrive there at the same time. The devotees climb up the trees and begin eating mangoes to their hearts’ content. But the intellectuals only watch from a distance and start analyzing how many branches the tree has, how many sub-branches and so on. They engage themselves in counting, and later they find that there are no mangoes left – all have been eaten by the devotees!

Be one with Him and know everything.
If you want to know all, try to know One.
If you try to know all,
you won’t be able to know anything.

You know, a person can easily become omniscient.

How can a living creature, a living being, be omniscient?

The secret is, if you want to know all, know one. And that one is your own “I”.

And if you want to know everything, if you try to know everything, you will not be able to know anything.

If you want to know all, know one. And that one is your own “I”.

As long as you exist, you have to perform service. The moment you stop, either due to incapacity or wrong choice, you will fall into an abyss. You should not let this happen. It is your nature to move from narrowness to vastness, from greatness to divinity. To allow yourself to fall into an abyss is against the characteristic of your existence.

You long for eternal bliss and endeavour for eternal life. You are fused with that unending vitality in the blood circulation of your arteries and veins and in the rhythmic throbbing of your heart. You have been listening day and night to the voice of eternal youth. In the state of supreme realisation you will be infused with boundless knowledge.

O human beings! be established in the radiance of divinity and the splendour of valour and chivalry, because yours is the path of revolution. Yours is not the path of extra caution and hesitant movement. You are the traveller on a rugged path. You have to march ahead with head held high and with your chest forward. You have no time to stagger or to look behind.
