CAN WE SIT STILL?
My heart burns to see the misery of the people. The rich are aloof, monks remain satisfied in their meditations while the people suffer grinding poverty that daily kills. Projects remain pending as funds are hard to come by. Funds are not welcomed as monks remain indifferent. The Mission of the Master has gone to sleep in places as it suspends animated activity in the name of divine dependence. Overall, a bleak picture for a country growing by the day in numerical strength as poverty in proportion multiplies despite tall claims and pious protestations to the contrary. Swamiji had urged his disciples to plunge in to fill up the breach and so do I. Shall you not stand by me and lift the motherland to her pristine glory?
