Since the beginning of the earth,
wherever and whenever there was the possibility of manifesting a ray
of the Consciousness, I was there.
That which is
speaking to you now, is a faithful servant of the Divine. From all
time, since the beginning of the earth, as a faithful servant of the
Divine, it has spoken in the name of its Master. And as long as earth
and men exist, it will be there in a body to preach the divine word.
So, wherever I am asked to speak, I do my best, as a servant
of the Divine.
But to speak in the name of a particular
doctrine or of a man, however great he may be, that I cannot do!
The Eternal Transcendent forbids me.

Myself
and My Creed
I belong to no nation, no civilisation, no
society, no race, but to the Divine.
I obey no master, no
ruler, no law, no social convention, but the Divine.
To
Him I have surrendered all, will, life, self; for Him I am ready to
give all my blood, drop by drop, if such is His Will, with complete
joy; and nothing in His service can be sacrifice, for all is perfect
delight.*
Japan, February 1920
