Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
As soon as we lose the moral basis, we cease to be religious. There is no such thing as religion overriding morality. Man, for instance, cannot be untruthful, cruel or incontinent and claim to have God on his side.
As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves.
It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit.
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
