ARISE! AWAKE! ... 4

We need forceful spiritual teachers, men of renunciation and character who can take the audience by storm, who can speak with authority and not as apologists weakly stating scriptural principles with neither courage nor conviction. Such a one was Swamiji. Whither another like him? We need many a mini-Vivekananda at least today to represent his cause, the Divine Mother's cause, so that India is galvanised into productive action of non-exploitative nation-building and world-regeneration through spiritual preaching. Character, electric personality and overwhelming love are the trinity of attributes we most need today in many a soul so that a wonderful movement may be set in motion and this fallen race of ours may once more reach sublime spiritual heights and lead the world unto peace and enlightenment.
