GO ON! Do not look back if you think you have done something that is not
right. Now, do you believe you could be what you are today, had you not made
those mistakes before? Bless your MISTAKES, then. They have been angels
unaware. Blessed be torture! Blessed be happiness! Do not care what be your
lot. Hold on to the IDEAL. March ON!

Doing good to others is VIRTUE(Dharma); injuring others is SIN. Strength and
manliness are virtue; weakness and cowardice are sin. Independence is virtue;
dependence is sin. Loving others is virtue; hating others is sin. Faith in God
and in one's own self is virtue; doubt is sin. Knowledge of oneness is virtue;
seeing diversity is sin.

In Modern times, if a man quotes a Moses, or a Buddha, or a Christ, he is
laughed at; but let him give the name of a Huxley, a Tyndall, or a Darwin, and
it is swallowed without salt.`Huxley has said it', that is enough for many. We
are free from superstitions, indeed! That was a religious superstition, and
this is a scientific superstition; only, in and through that superstition came
life- giving ideas of SPIRITUALITY, in and through this modern superstition
come LUST and GREED.That superstition was worship of God, and this superstition
is worship of filthy lucre, of fame or power. That is the DIFFERENCE.

True EQUALITY has never been and never can be on earth. How can we all be equal
here? This impossible kind of equality implies total death...... What makes the
difference between Man and Man? It is largely the difference in the brain.
Nowadays, no one but a lunatic will say we are all born with the same brain
power.
