“Our duty is very simple and plain. We want to serve the community, and in our own humble way to serve the Empire. We believe in the righteousness of the cause, which it is our privilege to espouse.

I began with the illustration of a ball of earth and told you that, even if we concentrate on that, we can realise the atman.”
