________________ "Truth or Dharma is the foundation-stone of the whole universal scheme. But if its "Anubandh" (connection) with its followers is not in order, the whole social order of the universe is disturbed. In other words "Anubandh" is the "Live-wire" which supplies dynamism to truth or spirituality which nourishes and protects the universal order and maintains its balance." He proceeds to say: "Many Sadhakas (seekers) are found to be canvassing the idea that their concern is only to liberate their own soul. They thus remain confined to one-sided view of the liberation of their own soul. The result is that by this process they remain aloof from the process of cleansing the social structure of the prevalent evils and of infusing good elements in their stead. The result is that the harmony which would have resulted from "Anubandh" between spirituality and its seekers is disturbed."
