Namaste,
4) Man The Maker Of His Destiny :
---------------------------------
We are responsible for what we are, and Whatever we wish ourselves to be, we
have the power to make ourselves.  If what we are now has been the result of
our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in 
future can be produced by our present actions; SO WE HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO ACT.
*****************************************************************************

Man is man, so long as he is struggling to rise above nature, and this nature 
is both internal and external,........ And if we read the history of nations
between the lines, we shall always find that the rise of a nation comes with
an increase in the number of such men, and the fall begins when this pursuit
after the Infinite, however vain the utilitarians may call it, has ceased.
That is to say, the mainspring of the strength of every race lies in its
SPIRITUALITY and the death of that race begins the day that spirituality wanes
and materialism gains ground.
******************************************************************************

You have to GROW inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spritual.
There is no other teacher but YOUR OWN SOUL.
******************************************************************************

MAKE YOUR OWN FUTURE. "let the dead past bury its dead".
The infinite future is before you, and you must always remember that each WORD,
THOUGHT and DEED lays up a store for you, and that as the bad thoughts and bad
works are ready to spring upon you like tigers, so also there is the inspring 
hope that the good thoughts and good deeds are ready with the power of a 
hundred thousand angels to defend you always and forever.
