Nobody has a right now to say that the Hindus are not liberal to a fault.

We see many persons talking the most wonderfully fine things about charity and about equality and the rights of other people and all that, but it is only in theory.

The body is subject to the law of growth and decay, what grows must of necessity decay.

In this body, He resides, the Lord of souls and the King of kings.

Every time you think of doing some charity, you think there is some beggar to take your charity. If you say, "O Lord, let the world be full of charitable people!" - you mean, let the world be full of beggars also. Let the world be full of good works - let the world be full of misery. This is out-and-out slavishness!
