Everything is the Supreme Being, which is Existence – consciousness - bliss, and ‘I am That’. By constantly cultivating this pure thought, get rid of impure thoughts.

The Gods gave a microbe a drop of water, and in it he lived. They gave an ant a half acre of land, and he prospered. They gave a tiger the forest and he formed an empire and became an emperor. They gave man the Universe and all the knowledge therein. He entered of his own free will the dungeon of Dogma, shut his mind to truth and slew and starved his brothers.
