Spiritual discipline is arranging conditions that support living in the highest way. This discipline is not to make ourselves better but to be what we already are. Strive for Self-realization rather than self-improvement.

When there is realization of the true Self there is no struggle with discipline. When divine love pervades our hearts and minds we naturally do what is right.

We all have available to us the storehouse of spiritual principle that can meet every need. When it is unlocked through right understanding, taken out, and put into practice, it brings peace and prosperity to our days.

Throughout time people have achieved mastery in all walks of life and risen above obstacles to greatness. What is the common factor? A single-minded devotion to the goal. The way of God-realization is the same. The same potential exists in all; the same grace is present, and the same necessity for dedication. Press on.

The bird that neglects to visit the flower misses the nectar. Devotion to God softens the heart and brings sweetness to meditation.

The desire to live an ethical life is a necessary preparation for liberation. If one does not see the suffering that results from unconscious living, there is no motivation for finding freedom.

When a potter forms clay into a vessel, what was once open space is seen as space inside and space outside. Yet the space itself remains unchanged. Break the vessel and the limiting factors disappear. Our true nature as spiritual beings is limitless, pure possibility. Remember that and refuse to be fooled by limiting conditions.
