Those with indomitable spirit are the real successes in life. If you can so train or condition your mind that you are content regardless of what you have or do not have, and if you can stand the challenge of all your trials and remain calm, that is true happiness.
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else. The Bible says, “Seek that kingdom within you.” Once you have found that, then everything else will be automatically added unto you; you don’t have to go looking for things outside; they will all come to you.
One day there will be no borders, no boundaries, no flags and no countries and the only passport will be the heart.
Any path is only a path, and there is no affront to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you.
These are times when anger, fear and hatred are giving rise to devastating problems throughout the world. But I believe we have a valuable opportunity to make progress in dealing with them, through collaboration between religion and science.
We should not fret for what is past, nor should we be anxious about the future; men of discernment deal only with the present moment.
