STATEMENT OFF THE SOUL ... 10


1. If researchers remain content with ivory-tower aloofness, then fb becomes a mart of dealings different.

2. There are those that will poison your life. Let them not, however, poison your peace. Separate your daily living from your inner poise, your inner peace.

3. This world is no more and no less than a vast university where we are housed to explore the non-self before we revert to the eternal theme, the song celestial beating in our arteries, in our subliminal consciousness, our sublime Self. And there at the end of the day's play will the tired child seek its repose on the lap of the Mother at peace with Her and at supreme peace with itself.

4. Bound are they who seek bonds, be they of hate or of love ; but free, indeed, are the self-contained ones who seek no pleasure save that of self-residence, who demand nothing from this world nor are held hostage to others' emotions, who serve wilfully and willingly all who come their way as acts of self-consecration unto the Divine, self-immolation in the fire of the Cosmic Self. These are the ever-free souls if never bound, these the living-free ones if they have extricated themselves from the shackles of Maya. Blessed, indeed, are these, the veritable fountains of divine bliss, the living pilgrimages on earth, our contact point to the life divine.

5. Who will take up Netaji's Cause? It is not for cowards or cowering people to do so. The valiant must come forth yet and carry his flag.

6. The problem with truth-seekers about Netaji is that they begin their search with preconceived notions and preset agenda. And this have been the historical experience as well, for history has ever been recorded through the narrow and biased view of the victor in war and the monarch of might.

7. This place is strange where we stay, God only knows where, marooned in a roving island in a sea of delusive dreams.

8. Bravo, brave souls! Thine is the day set for whilst cowards cower till dark sets in.

9. Research on Netaji and cowardice? Ah, what a queer combination! But such are some that hide and shoot arrows.

10. Praise be unto those that have courage of conviction to speak openly what they feel and do not hide their faces to win the friendship of the high and the mighty!
