The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for until the cord be broken, the bird cannot fly.
True religion is not talk, or doctrines, or theories, nor is it sectarianism. It is the relation between soul and God.
Every one of us has in him a continent of undiscovered character. Blessed is he who acts as Columbus to his own soul.
Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore, not by book, nor from tongue. If knowledge of mysteries comes after emptiness of mind, that is illumination of heart.
No work stains an individual who is pure, who is in harmony, who is master of his life, whose soul is one with the soul of all.
