The mode of living which is founded upon a total harmlessness towards all creatures upon a minimum of such harm is the highest morality.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Spiritual teacher enjoins us to comprehend by our soul the infinite spirit which is in the depth of the moving and changing facts of the world; the urging of our artistic nature.
The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for until the cord be broken, the bird cannot fly.
