________________ Forsworn Lo! How couldst thou forget that day when thy body was infested with so many maladies and lying in bed, thou wast murmuring: 'Save me, O Lord! Save me! On recovery shall I dedicate myself to Thine contemplation! I shall lead a life of benefaction, devote myself to piety, cultivate righteousness, spend my days in noble living and high thinking?' And to-day, having recovered at last, hast thou forgotten that prayer altogether? Can any greater perfidy than this be ever conceived: Remember one thing: Nature, too, inexorably chastizes a person who perpetrates such a shamefaced mockery of truth-truth, the quintessence of the Divine Being! Self-Immolation A man who immolates his life for the well-being of others, does not, in truth, excruciate himself through self-immolation, but creates thereby a living paradise on this earth! 37
