The Glory Of Our Soul
Vedanta teaches men to have
faith in themselves first.
As certain religions of the world
say that a man who does not believe
in a Personal God outside himself
is an atheist, so Vedanta says that
a man who does not believe in the
God within himself is an atheist.
Not believing in the glory of our own soul
is what Vedanta calls atheism.
