Quote by Paramahansa Yogananda

“[According to Einstein] only a material body whose mass is infinite could equal the velocity of light. [...] The masters who are able to materialise and dematerialise their bodies or any other object and to move with the velocity of light, and to utilise the creative light-rays in bringing into instant visibility any physical manifestation, have fulfilled the lawful condition: their mass is infinite.”
