If there is one God, then there is only His way to attain Him, not another. One must follow that way and reject the other. Worship not him who is born only to die, but Him who is eternal and is contained in the whole universe.

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

There is but One God. His name is Truth; He is the Creator. He fears none; he is without hate. He never dies; He is beyond the cycle of births and death. He is self-illuminated. He is realized by the kindness of the True Guru. He was True in the beginning; He was True when the ages commenced and has ever been True. He is also True now.

Even Kings and emperors with heaps of wealth and vast dominion cannot compare with an ant filled with the love of God.

Those who have loved are those that have found God

Let no man in the world live in delusion. Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.
