“Imagine a king forgetting his kingdom, in order to chase butterflies. Imagine the lover leaving the beloved, for a game at kite-flying.

Yet is this not what we do, when, from Infinite Realities, we turn back to the thought of food and clothes, and material prosperity? Let us learn afresh, […] that the life of the Soul is the only life, and God not the greatest, but the One Reality.”

The Complete Works of Sister Nivedita, volume III
