Strength naturally emerges from detemination. ile have become so weak that we cannot even get up from our bed and walk ibout, for our own goori but if fire appears in the house, w at once jump out of our bed and rim out. How i'n get this strength, we cannot say. We may know that the same thing is true i l'espect of the attainment of selfdiscipline. The summary of all this is that any man can become Satchidanand, if he has in him enthusiasm, devotion, politeness, a strong determination and self control. Thus comes the soul's release from ignorance, the mind's and the body's first spiritual change as a vast and resplendent kuowledge pour's own from above; the soul acquires God-knowledge as well as Worll-knowledge as its horizons widen and its inimensities become immeasurable.
