He is an atheist who does not believe in himself.The old religions said that he was an
atheist who didnot believe in God.The ne religion says that he is an atheist who does not believe in himself.
The history of the world is the history of a few me who had fith in themselves.That faith
calls out the divinity within. You can do anything. You fail only when you do not strive sufficiently to
manifest infinite power. As soon as a man or a nation loses faith,death comes.
Never think there is anything impossible for the soul.It is the greatest hereby to think
so.If there is sin,this is the only sin-to say that you are weak, or others are weak.
whatever you think,that you will be.If you think yourself as weak,you will be weak.If you think yourselves
strong, you will be strong.
Be free; hope for nothing from anyone.I am sure if you back upon your lives you will
find that you were always vainly trying to get help from others which never came.All the help that has come
was from within yourselves.
Never say,"No", never say "I cannot",for you are infinite.Even time ad space are as
nothing compared with your nature.You can do anything and everything, you are almighty.
are the children of God, the sharers of immortal bliss,holy and perfect beings.
Never mind the struggles, the mistakes. I never heard a cow tell a lie, but it is only a
cow -never a man. So never mind these failures, these little backslidings; hold the ideal a thousand
times, and if you fail a thousand times, make the attempt once more.
The remedy for weakness is not brooding over weakness,but thinking of strength.
Teach men of the strength that is already within them.
If there is one word that you find coming out like a bomb from the Upanisads,bursting
like a bomb-shell upon masses of ignorance, it is the word "FEARLESSNESS."
If you look, you will find that I have never quoted anything but the Upanisads. And
of the Upanisads, it is only that one idea strength. The quintessence of Vedas and Vedata and all lies in that
one word.
This is the great face: Strength is life, weakness id death. Strength is felicity, life
eternal, immortal; weakness is constant strain and misery, weakness is death.
Stand up and fight! Not one step back, that is the idea. Fight it out, whatever
comes. Let the stars move from the sphere! Let the whole world stand against us! Death means only a
change of garment. What of it? Thus fight! You gain nothing by becoming cowards. Taking a step
backward, you do not avoid any misfortune. You have cried to all the gods in the world. Has misery
ceased? The gods come to help you when you have succeeded. So what is the use? Die game, You are
infinite,deathless, birthless. Because you are infinite spirit, it does not befit you to be a slave. Arise!
Awake! Stand up and fight!
