He infused into the society & per driving force, the result of which was that the whole country rose up, awakened 25 one man, possessed with all qualities necessary for making himself and others happy in all talks of life and beyond Lord Mahavira and Buddha were the bearers of light which dispelled the darkness in India and elsewhere. It is a most unfortugate matter that His close disciples did not think it rise to reduce His teachings rerbatim in His life time as Bostel had dose in the case of Doctor Johason.
