'I am anxious to put before the whole world, a moral system which no one will ever be able to demolish. As I have so often said, the situation in which human beings find themselves, today, with no genuine philosophical system to guide them, is far from reassuring. The mentality is such that we have [...]
‘In spite of all their culture and science, in spite of so much progress in every area, men and women are more and more troubled and unsure of themselves. They no longer know what to believe or in what direction they should be going. In my opinion this is because they do not have a [...]
With a few extremely rare exceptions, no human being has ever been born into this world without some faults for which they have to make reparation or have some debts to pay.

Nature does much more wonderful things than even the most skilled electronic engineer: at the apex of each human’s heart, she places a tiny [...]
On the Buddhic plane we become one with the Universal Soul. 'Their next step is to rise to the Causal plane, and there they receive the secret treasures of Wisdom; all the mysteries of the universe are revealed to them; they are allowed to see and contemplate all the beauty of the Heavenly regions.
