Vivekananda once remarked: тАЬThe older I grow, the more everything seems to me to lie in manliness. This is my new gospel.
Not believing in the glory of our own soul is what the Vedanta calls atheism.

Each soul is potentially divine.
The goal is to manifest this Divinity within by controlling nature, external and internal.
Do this either by work, or worship, or psychic control, or philosophy тАФ by one, or more, or all of these тАФ and be free.
This is the whole of religion. Doctrines, or dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or forms, are but secondary details.
