You may control a mad elephant; You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger; Ride the lion and play with the cobra; By alchemy you may earn your livelihood; You may wander through the universe incognito; Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful; You may walk on water and live in fire; But control of the mind is better and more difficult.

True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
Move on your path with unflinching determination, using all the attributes of success. Tune yourself with the creative power of spirit.
God provideth every one with his daily food; why, O man, art thou immersed planning; He putteth their food even before the insects which He created in rocks and stones.
Mankind is a great, immense family… This is proved by what we feel in our hearts at Christmas.
