Fighting, and the employment of force, even for the right
cause, will not bring about good results. The oppressed who have right on their
side, must not take that right by force; the evil would continue. Hearts must
be changed. The rich must wish to give! Life in man should be like a flame,
warming all with whom it comes into contact. The spiritually awakened are like
to bright torches in the sight of God, they give light and comfort to their
fellows.
