Has it ever occurred to you to ask yourself, what you are, why you are here, what is your destiny? Can it be that you have been lost so much in the tumult and transitory arrangements of time that you have never asked yourself these questions?
The one truth I wish every man to take into his mind is this: man does not belong to the category of natural things: man is an out-breathing of the eternal spirit. Think not you are creatures of day: you are greater than your bodies, greater than your present self-knowledge. There are potentialities in you—infinite capacities—which will take ages to unfold. Each one of you is an heir of eternal life: hence it is you cannot rest for long in the finite. The soul’s spontaneous gravitation is towards God. “Thou God, madest us for thyself and our hearts are restless till they rest in thee.”
