India saw from the beginning, and, even in her ages of reason and her age of increasing ignorance, she never lost hold of the insight, that life cannot be rightly seen in the sole light, cannot be perfectly lived in the sole power of its externalities.

Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage.

The first principle of true teaching is that nothing can be taught.

One must have first of all a solid foundation.

The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
