Applied Mine of Strength

The Advaita is the eternal mine of strength
But it requires to be applied. It must first be cleared of the incrustation of scholasticism, and then in all its simplicity, beauty and sublimity be taught over the length and breadth of the land, as applied even to the minutest detail of daily life.
 "This is a very large order"; but we must work towards it, nevertheless, as if it would be accomplished tomorrow. 

Of one thing I am sure--that whoever wants to help his fellow beings through genuine love and unselfishness will work wonders. 

                       - Swami Vivekananda, 
                          in a Letter to S C Mukherjee (1895)
