"Anything that is secret and mysterious in this system of Yoga should be once rejected"
"So far then we see that in the study of Raja Yoga no faith or belief is necessary. Believe nothing until you find out for yourself - that is what it teaches us."
"There is no supernatural, says the yogi but there are in nature gross manifestations and subtle manifestations. The subtle are the causes, the gross the effect. The practice of Raja Yoga will lead to the acquisition of the subtle perceptions"
"For thousand of years such (various extraordinary) phenomena have been studied, investigated, and generalized; the whole ground of the religious faculties of man has been analyzed; and the practical result is the science of Raja Yoga"
"Science of Raja Yoga propose to put before humanity a practical and scientifically worked out method of reaching this truth"
"This truth has been preached by sages of all countries, of all ages, by men pure and unselfish who had no motive but to do good to the world"
