Are You Strong?

This is the one question I put to every man, woman, or child, when they are in physical, mental, or spiritual training. 

Are you strong? Do you feel strength? -- for I know it is truth alone that gives strength. 
I know that truth alone gives life, and nothing but going towards reality will make us strong, and none will reach truth until he is strong. 

Every system, therefore, which weakens the mind, makes one superstitious, makes one mope, makes one desire all sorts of wild impossibilities, mysteries, and superstitions, I do not like, because its effect is dangerous.
