11 Jan 1895 : Swamiji writes
To G.G. Narasimhachariar from Chicago : ...the Hindus must back their
talk with real work; if they cannot they do not deserve anything; that
is all....Work on, be lions; and the Lord will bless you. I shall work
incessantly until I die, and even after death I shall work for the good
of the world. Truth is infinitely more weighty than untruth; so is
goodness. If you possess these, they
will make their way by sheer gravity. ...It is the force of character,
of purity, and of truth — of personality. So long as I have these
things, you can feel easy; no one will be able to injure a hair of my
head. If they try, they will fail, saith the Lord. . . . Enough of books
and theories. It is the life that is the highest and the only way to
stir the hearts of people; it carries the personal magnetism. . . . The
Lord is giving me a deeper and deeper insight every day. Work, work,
work. . . . Truce to foolish talk; talk of the Lord. Life is too short
to be spent in talking about frauds and cranks. You must always remember
that every nation must save itself; so must every man; do not look to
others for help. ....
