-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Vasudevananda"
No matter how knowledgeable a person is or how compassionate he is; even
for him the body does not deviate from its nature. Like us, even their bodies fall
sick; when poisoned or crucified on the gallows, even they die... Still weaving
miracles around them, isn't it a deliberate attempt to tarnish their personality?
