With the attraction for lust and lucre working the other way, how many long for the realisation of God?

Religion for a long time has come to be static in India. What we want is to make it dynamic. I want it to be brought into the life of everybody.

The nearer we are to God, the less we will have occasions to cry or weep. The further we are from God, the more will long faces come. The more we know God, the more misery vanishes.

We must be bright and cheerful. Long faces do not make religion. Religion should be the most joyful thing in the world, because it is the best.
