We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
