How can you have order in a state without religion? For, when one man is dying of hunger near another who is ill of surfeit, he cannot resign himself to this difference unless there is an authority which declares 'God wills it thus.' Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.
But there are higher secrets of culture, which are not for the apprentices, but for proficients. These are lessons only for the brave. We must know our friends under ugly masks. The calamities are our friends.
जो मेरा था वो मेरा हो नहींपाया;
आँखों में आंसू भरे थे परमैं रो नहीं पायी
एक दिन उन्होंने मुझसे कहाकी;
हम मिलेंगे ख़्वाबों में पर
मेरी बदकिस्मती तो देखिये;
उस रात तो मैं ख़ुशी के मारे
सो भी नहीं पायी..!
Dekha hai humane bhi aajma kar,
De jate hai dhokha log karib aakar!
Kahati hai duniya magar dil nhi manta,
Kya aap v bhool jaoge hume apna Dost banakr?
Jisne Hamko Chaha, Use Hum Chah Naa Sake
Jisko Hamne Chaha, Use Hum Paa Naa Sake
Ye Soch Lo Ki, Dil Tutne Ka Khel Hai,
Kisi Ka Toda Aur, Apna Bacha Naa Sake..iii

The term biodynamics - push it aside, it is verbosity. It doesn't matter a bit. One has to use words to make headings, that's all it is. It's rather like the stupidity in a picture gallery today where you have to write under it what the scene or person is. It is equally as nonsensical as that. Therefore to talk about biodynamic gardening, biodynamic horticulture, biodynamic agriculture and the French intensive system is merely a horrible heading of terminology.
We are all human beings, immigrant or non-immigrant. We all feel fear. We all love and become confused when we don't act as well as we would like to. We all get depressed and have feelings of uselessness. All of these things are true and have always been true.
I insist on the dignity and God- given potential and work of every child, regardless of race or gender or sexual orientation or what zip code they were born in.
All that was great in the past was ridiculed, condemned, combated, suppressed — only to emerge all the more powerfully, all the more triumphantly from the struggle.
