Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life. Think of it, dream of it. Live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body Be full of that idea and just leave every other idea alone. This the way toSUCCESS. And this is the way great spiritual giants are produced. Others are mere talking machines.

How has all the knowledge in the world been gained but by the concentration of the powers of the mind? The world is ready to give up its secret if we only know how to knock, how to give it the necessary blow. The strength and force of the blow come through concentration. There is no limit to the power of the human mind. The more concentrated it is, the more power is brought to bear on one point, That is the secret.

to the wheel How long is this life for? As you have come to this world, leave some mark behind. Otherwise, Where is the difference between you and the trees and stones? They too Come into existence, decay and die.

in term of what you become, how you live and what actions you do. Let your preparations be wise, correct and of such kind that will lead to your true welfare, supreme good and lasting satisfaction and happiness.
