In this age, work
without devotion to God has no legs to stand upon. It is like a
foundation on sand. First cultivate devotion. All other things---
schools, dispensaries, etc. -- will, if you like, be added to you. First
devotion, then work. Work, apart from devotion or love of God, is
helpless and cannot stand.

You see many stars
in the sky at night, but not when the sun rises. Can you therefore say
that there are no stars in the heavens during the day? O man, because
you cannot find the God in the days of your ignorance, say not that
there is no God.

suffers so much simply for want of devotion to God. One should therefore

felt indisposed. That one day's irregularity resulted in the upsetting...

Are not drums made
in the country? Are not trumpets and kettle-drums available in India?
Make the boys hear the deep-toned sound of these instruments. Hearing
from boyhood the sound of these effeminate forms of music, . . . the
country is well nigh converted into a country of women. (VII. 232)
