" When I saw periods of great sorrow and destruction, and realised my inability to do anything about it, I wanted to escape from it all; to, a void, to nothing. An escape from the unpredictability of life; that gave way to the counter thought, why is it that we want ultimate release from all life?” said the snake.
“We shall speak of escape later”, said the Yogi, “but for now ,let us examine sorrow and evil. To me, the excess of these do not indicate the end of the world, in the sense we should passively wait for self destruction. To me, they serve as indicators of spiritual inertia. Every being is Divine, but only a handful realise this. I am banking on the trust that even these handful of realised beings can actualize the welfare of others, by sheer vibration; the wind don’t forget, carries their message. In other words, let the doctors, engineers, scientists, mechanics, do their job. The spiritualist has a job too, to create love and kindness in the air, nay, to give a fresh air. The mystics know that such a time comes periodically, when there is danger of annihilation; they call it Kali yug. This can be overcome only by men of Shiva consciousness. They must face the challenge, such a time signals their call for performance. And, they come to use their most massive energies, using also the energies of mystics before them. They too, must prove the growth in their field. Verily the Great Sikh Guru Gobind declared that one holy warrior could fight over a hundred thousand foes. I ask you, in today’s time is it not significant that one good man of God can pray for Universal well being and neutralize the effect of a hundred thousand ignorant beings?  Meditate upon this.”
