Deep as Ocean and Broad as Sky

The history of the past has gone to develop the inner life of India and the activity (i.e. the outer life) of the West. 
Hitherto these have been divergent. 

The time has now come for them to unite. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was alive to the depths of being, yet on the outer plane who was more active? 
This is the secret. 

Let your life be as deep as the ocean, but let it also be as wide as the sky. 

              - Swami Vivekananda, 
                 Prabuddha Bharata Interview (September 1898)
