“Education is the manifestation of perfection already existing in man.”

“Religion is being and becoming. Religion is the manifestation of the Divinity already in man.”

“The very reason for nature's existence is for the education of the soul.”

“Shri Ramakrishna use to say, "As Long as I Live, so long do I learn". That man or that society which has nothing to learn is already in the jaws of death.”

“Each soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divinity by controlling nature, external and internal. Do this either by work, or worship, or psychic control, or philosophy - by one, or more, or all of these - and be free. This is the whole of religion. Doctrines, or dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or forms, are but secondary details.”

“So long as the millions live in hunger and ignorance, I hold every person a traitor who, having been educated at their expense, pays not the least heed to them!”

“The greatest truths are the simplest things in the world, simple as your own existence.”
