18 March :
18 Mar 1894 : Letter: Miss. Mary Hale - The letter says that Mazoomdar
has gone back to Calcutta and is preaching that Vivekananda is
committing every sin under the sun in America. . . . This is your
America's wonderful spiritual man! It is not their fault; until one is
really spiritual, that is, until one has got a real insight into the
nature of one's own soul and has got a glimpse of the
world of the soul, one cannot distinguish chaff from seed, tall talk
from depth, and so on. I am sorry for poor Mazoomdar that he should
stoop so low! Lord bless the old boy!
Newspaper report in Detroit
Dritic: Chimercal religion - There is but one religion, one philosophy,
one God over all. Religion is love; not love of self, but love of God
and all His creatures. Religion: People preach for it, write for it,
fight for it, die for it, do everything but live for it...
Newspaper
report in Detroit Sunday news Tribune : The lesson of toleration -
There is no finer test of intellectual strength than the willingness to
receive and consider the well-digested thoughts of all the people under
the sun. The horizon of religious toleration stretches further and
further away every year.
