Intense Self-sacrifice

He is indeed a Yogi who sees himself in the whole universe and the whole universe in himself. 
Self-sacrifice, not self-assertion, is the law of the highest universe. 

The world is so evil because Jesus' teaching, "Resist not evil", has never been tried. Selflessness alone will solve the problem. Religion comes with intense self-sacrifice. 
Desire nothing for yourself. Do all for others. This is to live and move and have your being in God.

                ‘Religion is Self-Abnegation’,
