Nature by itself is a book which a soul reads.
Hanuman, the devotee of Rama, said: When I identify myself with the body, O Lord, I am Thy creature, eternally separate from Thee. When I identify myself with the soul, I am a spark of that Divine Fire which Thou art. But when I identify myself with the Atman, I and Thou art one.
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.
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.
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.
