ALL powers and ALL purity and ALL
greatness----------------- EVERY THING IS IN THE
SOUL.
· TALK NOT ABOUT IMPURITY, BUT SAY
THAT WE ARE PURE.
· Hold fast to the real Self, think only pure
thoughts,…………………..
· He who chooses perfection becomes
pure.
· All truth in the universe will manifest in your
heart, if you are sufficiently pure.
· You are the Pure One; awake and arise, O mighty
one, this sleep does not become you.
· Ay, forget first the love for gold, and name and
fame, for this trumpery world of ours. Then,
only then, you will understand the love of……
………… (God), too holy to be attained without
giving up everything, too sacred to be
understood until the soul has become perfectly
pure. People with ideas of sex, and of money,
and of fame, bubbling up every minute in the
heart, daring to criticise.
· Can you not see the tide of death and materialism
that is rolling over these Western lands? Can you
not see the power of lust and unholiness, that is
eating into the very vitals of society? Believe me,
you will not arrest these things by talk, or by
movements of agitation for reform; but by
renunciation, by standing up, in the midst of
decay and death, as mountains of righteousness.
Talk not, but let the power of purity, the
power of chastity, the power of renunciation,
emanate from every pore of your body. Let it
strike those who are struggling day and night for
gold, that even in the midst of such a state of
things, there can be one to whom wealth counts
for nothing. Put away lust and wealth.
Sacrifice yourselves.
· Hold yourself in readiness, i.e., be pure and holy,
and love for love’s sake.
· Everything will come right if you are pure and
sincere.
· Remain pure always.
· Whatever others think or do, lower not your
standard of purity, morality and love.
· Be pure and be good; be pure and love everyone.
· Purify yourself, and the world is bound to be
purified.
· Let us perfect the means; the end will take care
of itself. For the world can be good and pure,
only if our lives are good and pure. Therefore, let
us purify ourselves. Let us make ourselves
perfect.
· Darkness is less light; evil is less good; impurity
is less purity.
· Be pure, staunch, and sincere to the very
backbone, and everything will be all right.
· The soul is by its nature pure and perfect, infinite
in power and blessed.
· So long as you are pure, and true to your
principles, you will never fail, and blessings will
be yours.
· Please be careful not to become impure even in
thought, as also in speech and action; always try
to do good to others as far as in you lies.
· Goodness is our nature, perfection is our nature,
not imperfection, not impurity.
· What power is higher than the power of purity?
· Only let me be perfectly pure, perfectly sincere,
and perfectly unselfish.
· Keep yourself holy and pure.
· A pure heart sees beyond the intellect.
· Hold fast to the real self, think only pure
thoughts, and you will accomplish more than a
regiment of mere preachers. Out of purity and
silence comes the word of power.
· Make yourselves decent men!...................Be
chaste and pure!.................There is no other way.
· The purer the body and mind, the quicker the
desired result will be obtained.
· Truth, purity and unselfishness---------------
wherever these are present, there is no power,
below or above the sun to crush the possessor
thereof. Equipped with these, one individual is
able to face the whole universe in opposition.
· The man who is pure and who dares, does all
things.
· Say, day and night, “Come up, my brothers; you
are the infinite ocean of purity! Be God!
Manifest as God!”
· Work hard. Be holy and pure and the fire will
come.
· Purity, patience, and perseverance overcome all
obstacles.
· Power will come, glory will come, goodness
will come, purity will come, and everything
that is excellent will come when this sleeping
soul is roused to self-conscious activity.
· Be pure first, and you will have power.
· Neither numbers nor powers nor wealth nor
learning nor eloquence nor anything else will
prevail, but purity, living the life, in one word,
ANUBHUTI, Realisation.
· All men are pure; all men are good.
· No body is ugly, no body is impure.
· We have wept long enough; no more weeping,
but stand on your feet and be men. It is a manmaking
religion that we want. It is man-making
theories that we want. It is man-making
education all around that we want. And here is
the test of truth-anything that makes you weak
physically, intellectually and spiritually, reject as
poison; there is no life in it, it cannot be true.
Truth is strengthening. Truth is purity, Truth is
all knowledge. Truth must be strengthening,
must be enlightening, must be invigorating.
· The more we come out and do good to others, the more
our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
· Bless people when they revile you. Think how much good
they are doing by helping to stamp out the false ego. Hold
fast to the Atman, think only pure thoughts, and you will
accomplish more than a regiment of mere preachers.
· Impurity is a mere superimposition under which your
real nature has become hidden. But the real you is
already perfect, already strong.
· Oh, to live even for a day in the full light of freedom, to
breathe the free air of simplicity! Isn’t that the highest
purity?
· Tremendous purity, tremendous renunciation, is the one
secret of spirituality. "Neither through wealth, nor
through progeny, but through renunciation alone is
immortality to be reached," say the Vedas. "Sell all that
thou hast and give to poor, and follow me," says the
Christ. So all great saints and prophets have expressed
it, and have carried it out in their lives. How can great
spirituality come without renunciation?
· Give me few men and women who are pure and selfless and I
shall shake the world.
· The more we come out and do good to others, the more our
hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
· The more we come out and do good to others, the more
our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
· Purity in thought, speech, and act is absolutely
necessary for anyone to be religious. Purity is strength.
Spiritual truth is purity.
· Purity, patience, and perseverance are the three
essentials to success. And, above all, love.
· The miseries of the world cannot be cured by
physical help only. Until man’s nature changes,
these physical needs will always arise, and
miseries will always be felt, and no amount of
physical help will cure them completely. The
only solution of this problem is to make
mankind pure. Ignorance is the mother of all
the evil and all the misery we see. Let men
have light, let them be pure and spiritually
strong and educated, then alone will misery
cease in the world, not before.
· If you are pure, if you are strong, you, one man, are
equal to the whole world.
· The purer the mind, the easier it is to control.
· Strength is in goodness, in purity.
· Goodness is our nature, purity is our nature, and that
nature can never be destroyed.
· Perfect purity is the most essential thing, for only “the
pure in heart shall see God.”
· You must be pure and help any one who comes to you,
as much as lies in your power.
· Be pure and be good; be pure and love everyone.
· Remove the veils of ignorance by purity, then we
manifest ourselves as we really are and know that we
were never in bondage.
· In purity is no bondage.
· Buddha set his greatest enemy free because he, by
hating him (Buddha) so much, kept constantly thinking
of him; that thought purified his mind and he became
ready for freedom. Therefore think of God all the time
and that will purify you.
