Meditation is for you to realise that the deepest nature of your existence is beyond thoughts and emotions, that it is incredibly vast and interconnected with all other beings.

Develop confidence in your innate qualities and believe that these qualities will be brought to fruition.

We have produced many of our problems through our confused mental states.

The State must follow, and not lead, the character and progress of the citizen.

Children need nature for the healthy development of their senses, and therefore, for learning and creativity.

A fastidious taste is like a squeamish appetite; the one has its origin in some disease of the mind, as the other has in some ailment of the stomach.

The welfare of a child is not to be measured by money only, nor by physical comfort only.
