Great things can be done by great sacrifices only.
No selfishness, no name, no fame, yours or mine, nor my Master's even!
Work, work the idea, the plan, my boys, my brave, noble, good souls -- to the wheel, to the wheel put your shoulders! Stop not to look back for name, or fame, or any such nonsense. Throw self overboard and work.
Remember, "The grass when made into a rope by being joined together can even chain a mad elephant."
The Lord's blessings on you all! His power be in you all -- as I believe it is already. "Wake up, stop not until the goal is reached", say the Vedas. …
The spirit, my boys, the spirit; the love, my children, the love; the faith, the belief; and fear not!
The greatest sin is fear.
