"… But, my sibling, our optimal of life is to stow away, to stifle, and to deny. We are to surrender and not to take… .The Sannyasin must not have self-preservation... " Living in a room secured with dark ash – anyway watchful you might be – a few spots must adhere to your garments." So, anyway one may attempt to be great and blessed, so long he is on the planet, some piece of his inclination must float downwards. The best approach to god is the inverse to that of the world. What's more, to the couple of, not many, are given to have God and mammon in the meantime."
(page.466-7., Letters of Swami Vivekananda, Swamiji's letter dated May 1894 to Prof Wright.)
