(由弟子S·E·瓦尔多小姐记录)
一八九五年七月五日,星期五。
除非你随时准备改变自己,否则永远无法看见真理;但你必须坚定不移,持续追寻真理……
顺世论派是印度一个极为古老的学派,是彻底的唯物主义者。他们如今已经消亡,大部分典籍也已散佚。他们主张灵魂是身体及其力量的产物,随身体一同消亡;认为灵魂继续存在毫无证据。他们否认推理知识,仅承认感官的直接感知。

三摩地是神性与人性合一的境界,或可称之为"达致同一"……
唯物主义说,自由的呼声是幻觉。唯心主义说,诉说束缚的声音是幻觉。吠檀多说,你同时是自由的又是不自由的——在世俗层面永远不自由,但在灵性层面永远自由。
超越自由与束缚。
我们即是湿婆,我们是超越感官的不朽智慧。
无限的力量存在于每个人的背后;向圣母祈祷,力量便会降临于你。
"圣母啊,赐予语言之力者,自有永有者,请化为言语降临我的唇间。"(印度教祈祷文)
"那声如雷霆的圣母啊,请来到我心中!迦梨,你是永恒的时间,你是不可抗拒的力量,沙克提,大能!"

(RECORDED BY MISS S. E. WALDO, A DISCIPLE)
FRIDAY, July 5, 1895.
Until you are ready to change any minute, you can never see the truth; but you must hold fast and be steady in the search for truth. . . .
Chârvâkas, a very ancient sect in India, were rank materialists. They have died out now, and most of their books are lost. They claimed that the soul, being the product of the body and its forces, died with it; that there was no proof of its further existence. They denied inferential knowledge accepting only perception by the senses.

Samâdhi is when the Divine and human are in one, or it is "bringing sameness". . . .
Materialism says, the voice of freedom is a delusion. Idealism says, the voice that tells of bondage is delusion. Vedanta says, you are free and not free at the same time — never free on the earthly plane, but ever free on the spiritual.
Be beyond both freedom and bondage.
We are Shiva, we are immortal knowledge beyond the senses.
Infinite power is back of everyone; pray to Mother, and it will come to you.
"O Mother, giver of Vâk (eloquence), Thou self-existent, come as the Vak upon my-lips," (Hindu invocation).
"That Mother whose voice is in the thunder, come Thou in me! Kali, Thou time eternal, Thou force irresistible, Shakti, Power!"
