স্বামী বিবেকানন্দ
What
can the Mantras and Tantras do? You must stand on your own feet. You
must have this new method - the method of man-making. The true man is
he who is strong as strength itself and yet possesses a woman's
heart. You must feel for the millions of beings around you, and yet
you must be strong and inflexible and you must also possess
obedience; though it may seem a little paradoxical - you must possess
these apparently conflicting virtues. If your superior orders you to
throw yourself into a river and catch a crocodile, you must first
obey and then reason with him. Even if the order is wrong, first obey
and then contradict it. The bane of sects, especially in Bengal, is
that if anyone happens to have a different opinion, he immediately
starts a new sect, he has no patience to wait. So you must have a
deep regard for your Sangha. There is no place for disobedience here.
Crush it out without mercy. No disobedient members here, you must
turn them out. There must not be any traitors in the camp. You must
be as free as the air, and as obedient as this plant and the dog.
