If You Would Perfect Your Body, Guard

The Law Of Harvest Is To Reap More Than You Sow. Sow An Act, And You Reap A Habit. Sow A Habit And You Reap A Character. Sow A Character And You Reap A Destiny.

As The Physically Weak Man Can Make Himself Strong By Careful And Patient Training, So The Man Of Weak Thoughts Can Make Them Strong By Exercising Himself In Right Thinking.

Men Are Anxious To Improve Their Circumstances, But Are Unwilling To Improve Themselves; They Therefore Remain Bound. The Man Who Does Not Shrink From Self-crucifixion Can Never Fail To Accomplish The Object Upon Which His Heart Is Set. This Is True Of Earthly As Of Heavenly Things. Even The Man Whose Object Is To Acquire Wealth Must Be Prepared To Make Great Personal Sacrifices Before He Can Accomplish His Object; And How Much More So He Who Would Realize A Strong And Well-poised Life.

As The Smallest Drop Of Water Detached From The Ocean Contains All The Qualities Of The Ocean, So Man, Detached In Consciousness From The Infinite, Contains Within Him Its Likeness; And As The Drop Of Water Must, By The Law Of Its Nature, Ultimately Find Its Way Back To The Ocean And Lose Itself In Its Silent Depths, So Must Man, By The Unfailing Law Of His Nature, At Last Return To His Source, And Lose Himself In The Great Ocean Of The Infinite.

Nature Gives All, Without Reservation, And Loses Nothing; Man Or Woman, Grasping All, Loses Everything.
