Why impress false religion on the world? It will be of no service to it. Why run about for the sake of wealth? You cannot escape from death… Think, O think, you thoughtless fool, you shall have in the end to depart alone.
-A Spiritual Leader "Bani of Guru Gobind Singh"
Only that, which influences everyone everywhere equally is the blessing of God
