All the powers in the universe are already ours.

It is we who have put our hands before our eyes

and cry that it is dark. Know that there is no darkness

around us. Take the hands away and there is the

light, which was from the beginning. Darkness never

existed, weakness never existed. We who are fools

cry that we are weak; we who are fools cry that we

are impure. Thus Vedanta not only insists that the

ideal is practical, but that it has been so all the

time, and this ideal, this Reality is our own nature.
