STAND UPON TRUTH, AND YOU HAVE GOT GOD.

Say, "it is my nature", never say, "It is my duty" — to do anything whatever.

"Truth alone triumphs, not untruth." Stand upon Truth, and you have got God.

THINK ON IT DAY AND NIGHT. FILL THE MIND [ WITH IT ] DAY AND NIGHT - I AM THE LORD OF THE UNIVERSE

[This truth] is first to be heard. Hear it first. Think on it day and night. Fill the mind [with it] day and night: "I am It. I am the Lord of the universe. Never was there any delusion.... " Meditate upon it with all the strength of the mind till you actually see these walls, houses, everything, melt away — [until] body, everything, vanishes. "I will stand alone. I am the One." Struggle on!

FACE THE TRUTH AS IT IS! WE ARE DETERMINED TO DIE GAME - THAT IS ALL THE RELIGION I KNOW - GO ON!

All weakness, all bondage is imagination. Speak one word to it, it must vanish. Do not weaken! There is no other way out.... Stand up and be strong! No fear. No superstition. Face the truth as it is! If death comes — that is the worst of our miseries — let it come! We are determined to die game. That is all the religion I know. I have not attained to it, but I am struggling to do it. I may not, but you may. Go on!
