Shri Mahakali Puja, Le Raincy ashram 1990

• For collectivity we have to know that Shri Bhairavanath and Shri Hanumana and Shri Ganesha, these three principles that work within us, all of them have parallel work to do, parallel work, they do not interfere for each other. But if it comes to help they go all out, there’s no quarrel. No quarrel between the two, no. If Hanuman needs Bhairava, he is there, if Bhairava needs Hanumana he is there, all out.

• So this collectivity comes only by understanding one thing – what a great work we are doing today, people are not conscious of that, they take it just by the way. In the war you have seen how people fight, even if they have the fear of dying. Formerly nobody was paid also in the military. But they went and fought, maybe for their country, for anything. And they used to join together to fight, they allowed themselves to be killed, they helped each other, they did this, all these qualities are there when we want to hate someone. But when we want to love someone why shouldn’t we help, those qualities emerging out of us.
