I Swore That I Would Not Suffer From The World's Grief And The World's Stupidity And Cruelty And Injustice And I Made My Heart As Hard In Endurance As The Nether Millstone And My Mind As A Polished Surface Of Steel. I No Longer Suffered, But Enjoyment Had Passed Away From Me.

I Swore That I Would Not Suffer

I Swore That I Would Not Suffer From The World's Grief And The World's Stupidity And Cruelty And Injustice And I Made My Heart As Hard In Endurance As The Nether Millstone And My Mind As A Polished Surface Of Steel. I No Longer Suffered, But Enjoyment Had Passed Away From Me.

When I Approached God At That Time, I Hardly Had A Living Faith In Him. The Agnostic Was In Me, The Atheist Was In Me, The Sceptic Was In Me And I Was Not Absolutely Sure That There Was A God At All. I Did Not Feel His Presence. Yet Something Drew Me To The Truth Of The Vedas, The Truth Of The Gita, The Truth Of The Hindu Religion.
