Renunciation and Service

Our method is very easily described. It simply consists in reasserting the national life. 
Buddha preached renunciation. India heard, and yet in six centuries she reached her greatest height. The secret lies there. 

The national ideals of India are RENUNCIATION and SERVICE. Intensify her in those channels, and the rest will take care of itself.
